[MlMt] Does MailMate mirror everything back to the server?

2018-02-19 Thread Ron Britton
I've read a bunch of stuff about how MailMate works, but I'm still confused about where all of the emails live. I have been using email since the early 1990s. I have used POP3 this entire time. Downloading emails to my computer and deleting them off of the server has worked well for me. I'm

> IMAP is better if you have more than one device. I know that's the standard use case, but it doesn't apply to me. The only reason I'm considering IMAP, is because MailMate has some features I want. I have many hundreds of email addresses. It's how I control spam. It looks like MailMate won't

[MlMt] Make the From address display in the Compose window

2018-05-17 Thread Ron Britton
I have a bazillion email addresses, which I use to control spam. MailMate seems to be reliably choosing the correct address when I reply to an email. However, it defaults to my main email address for any new emails I compose. The problem is that I can't tell what email address it's using just

MailMate is perpetually putting emails from certain senders into the Junk folder. No matter how many times I click "Move Out of Junk", it doesn't learn and keeps doing this. I do not have SpamSieve enabled or mailbox rules enabled. I finally looked at the raw source file of one of these emails a

You might want to take a look at Runbox's filtering options - see https://help.runbox.com/filter/ I use Runbox too and generally find their spam-filtering pretty good. You can 'train' it to your specific needs using their webmail interface. I don't think Mailmate has any direct influence on wh

I'm using Runbox. They allow you to create folders inside of the Inbox. I set up a folder there and set up a filter on the Runbox server to direct certain emails into that Inbox subfolder. I know I could leave Runbox out of the equation altogether and set up a smart folder in MM to do the same
