Most of what you write would be expected behaviour since MailMate does a lot of 
caching of views right now (which needs to be changed). The exception is that 
you use separate windows to view messages. I would expect that to behave 
differently. I'll note to look into that.

You can just use the email address I'm sending from. Everything goes to me 
anyways.

Re: [MlMt] Keybindings for non-US keyboards

My point is that 'cmd' and 'alt' are usually not the same key. Maybe a

The indentation menu commands are ⌘-[ and ⌘-] so on a keyboard with 
a ⌘ (command/cmd) key and an alt (option/⌥) key where you need alt-5

Some keyboards have "Meta" or "Windows" keys that might get mapped to 
⌘. Mapping BOTH ⌘ and ⌥ to a single 'alt' key would be 
intrinsically broken, because they have always served distinct purposes.


Will the alt key be recognized doubly, once to produce the bracket and 
then to produce the shortcut? I gather he has to remap these shortcuts 
to completely other keys.


It is essential that you have distinct mappings for the distinct 
modifier keys.

FWIW, this seemed to go away when I upgraded to Big Sur Beta 8.

I didn't realize there was a " secret handshake" beyond "Check For Beta
Builds"!

Thanks

The current version (5723) also seems to work fine.

I print things so rarely, I wasn't even aware this was an issue.

Thanks for the info on getting the latest builds.

[MlMt] LDAP support in v5723

2020-10-01 Thread Raza Rizvi


Thank you for adding ldaps support in this version but there is still 
something broken:


Find matches for 'sam'
Result:
LDAP: Connect to 'ldaps://ldap.mxes.net:636'
 Parsed
 Initialized (ldap.mxes.net:636)
Warning: Failed starting TLS. Can't contact LDAP server
ldap connection failed (ldaps://ldap.mxes.net:636): Can't contact LDAP 
server


Is there more debugging I can do to help you find the solution?

But the problem is that Apple, in their infinite wisdom decided not to 
label non-ascii keyboards with such key symbols. So, while it's less of 
an issue for me as someone used to programming, other people will have 
no idea where [], {}, etc. are.

Right. And this appears to be standard in other applications. For 
whatever reason, however, I struggle to remember most of these keyboard 
combinations, which is why if there is some kind of library that expands 
such shortcuts to the current key-mapping.


But how am I supposed to enter ⌥-⌘-[ if I need to use ⌥ to get [ ?

Some keyboards have "Meta" or "Windows" keys that might get mapped to 
⌘. Mapping BOTH ⌘ and ⌥ to a single 'alt' key would be 
intrinsically broken, because they have always served distinct 
purposes.

No, see above.

It is essential that you have distinct mappings for the distinct 
modifier keys.


I do have. But seeing as some of the shortcuts depend upon using the 
same modifier twice, I think I'm just screwed.


I guess it would be the same for you if a shortcut required ⌥-⌘-ß!
