Is there any way to have MailMate check recipients against a list of approved addresses more directly? Ideally, of course, it would be able to check against a group I've created in the Contacts app; last December you said that "This is a relatively high priority and a frequent request, but I cannot give you a time frame."

I should simply stop indicating that anything is ever going to be implemented :-)

In the meantime, any workaround that would let me easily see and maintain a list of approved addresses would be a great improvement (such as, oh, if I could send myself a message with a list of email addresses in the body, and have MailMate check whether all recipients of an outgoing message are contained in the body of that message? Then I could just update that message to myself as needed).

Is there any way in which something like this is possible? Or do I need to stick with the kludge I have?

I think you might have answered this question yourself. Create a draft in an otherwise empty IMAP mailbox, put the email addresses in the body of the messages, and then create a check using a condition like:

        #recipient.address ~ $UUID.#unquoted

(Use the UUID of the IMAP mailbox. Put it on the pasteboard using ⌘C after selecting the mailbox.)

But I don't know if that really works. It tests a comparison method which is not available using the GUI and it has undergone little testing.
