[MlMt] Restrict Space Key scroll to only the current Mail

2019-02-13 Thread Michael Nietzold

Where:
- i have 3 Pane Layout
- i select an Message in the MessageList
- i see an eMail in Preview
- i hit many times the Space

what i see:
- if there are more than one message in MessageList then it shows the 
next message



what i expected:
- stay on the current message (and jump to the end)


my settings:
MailMate 1.12.4 (5594)

```
cat Custom.plist
{
l = "loadImagesOnce:";
"\UF72C" = "scrollPageUp:";
"\UF72D" = "scrollPageDown:";
" " = "scrollPageDown:";

[MlMt] Group Submailbox peer weeek

2019-02-13 Thread Michael Nietzold

i like to make a submailbox for each week in year

where:
- i create a submailbox
- i select a date

what i see:
- i can only select some parts of the Date

what i expected:
- it should be a better "custom selector" for Submailbox unique value 
selector (just now i can only select an message field but not the 
modifiers
- i see an manual section for the modifiers available in the  "Mailbox 
Name Format"
- take a format string to format the date like "-ww" to get it 
formatted

[MlMt] Flagging potentially fake email addresses

2019-02-13 Thread Kee Hinckley
My wife just got one of those scams where they pretend to be someone (in 
her case, the Department Chair for the Sociology department) and they 
are in a meeting and want you to do them a favor. If you don't notice 
the incorrect email address and reply, it turns out they want you to buy 
some iTunes gift certificates for someone.


The intro text was professionally done. It was specifically targeted for 
a sociology department. Followup text was sloppier and clearly done on 
the fly. She managed to alert other students and stopped at least one 
person who was just about to buy the cards. The scam works very well.


Obviously the most important thing you can do is check the return email 
address, but a friend mentioned to me that GSuite Enterprise has a 
feature where they will highlight email addresses where the email 
address is one not seen before for the given fullname.


So if the sender's name is "Kee Hinckley" and previous mail from me has 
been coming from "k...@example.com", and this one comes from an email 
address that I haven't seen associated with that user before, highlight 
it.


There's some interesting edge cases (misspelling, handling "+" and "." 
in the email, how to deal with people who have multiple email addresses, 
deciding when to say "yes, it's okay even though it's new"…) but I 
thought I'd throw it out there as a potential feature. Although I 
suspect the people who would find this most useful probably aren't 
MailMate users.___

I'm continually surprised how gullible people are.  Why would someone's 
department chair or other boss send email from a meeting asking the 
person to purchase gift cards?  I know there's always a rationale in the 
email ("I'm stuck in this meeting, I need to pay my baby sitter, won't 
have time later, etc.") but it's never seemed remotely plausible to me.  
I know people fall for the tax scams, where they get a call from someone 
claiming to be from the U.S. tax collection agency (or national police 
or something) and pressuring the person to buy gift cards to pay a tax 
lien or warrant for arrest or something, and that has always seemed so 
wildly ridiculous that I'm always amazed people fall for it.

Is there a way to compose HTML mail using a different editor?  I see 
Command -> BBedit -> Edit but am not sure if I can just write HTML in 
that or what.

I'm not sure -- Benny will give the authoritative answer -- but I use 
Emacs to edit sometimes, and I just write Markdown, and it automagically 
turns into HTML in MailMate.  Can you use Bbedit to compose in Markdown?

I can compose using Markdown directly in Mailmate.  But Markdown doesn't 
always come out right.


Maybe 99% of the email I write is plain text, no formatting needed.  But 
on occasion I need something.

Academia is all a fake of having recommendations from the right people. If the 
department chair asks a grad student for a favor, you’re likely to jump at the 
opportunity. Also, the first email was super specific, which would cause some 
people to suspend disbelief later. This isn’t a typical syntax screwed up scam 
message:


 I am in a meeting right now working on the study of the development of 
children of same-sex couples, based on data from the US Census. That is why I 
am contacting you through mail. I should have called you, but calls are 
restricted during the meeting. I don't know when the meeting will be rounding 
up, And i want you to help me out on something very important right away. 

Yes. If you stop to think about it, it’s got a few problems. But lots of people 
don’t stop to think when the guy holding their budget strings asks for a quick 
favor.


I’ve sense heard of lots of other variations of this. All managed to pull in 
multiple people who responded. Organizations don’t tend to reward questioning 
your boss.
