Is there any way to have MailMate check recipients against a list of approved addresses more directly?

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.

Darn it, I was all excited about this, but I created the mailbox, the message with the list of addresses, and the condition check, and hitting SEND on a test message produced a spinning pizza followed by a crash.

My quick attempt to reproduce this crash failed.

Back to the old kludge, I guess, but I hope something better will be possible someday!

If your draft is line separated like this:

        f...@bar.com
        b...@foo.com

Then I think this might work:

        #recipient.address =[c] $UUID.#unquoted

This is because `#unquoted` is actually split into 1 value per paragraph.

I tried it again with the new form of the condition and got a spinning pizza and crash again, both with a draft message and with a message I had actually sent to myself, not just saved a draft of, as the only thing in the IMAP mailbox. In both cases the only text in the message was the list of addresses, one per line.

But if it's working for you, clearly it should work! Would it help to send you a crash report? Or I guess you've got both of today's crash reports already, because I've ticked that box in Preferences-General. Well, not that I think this should be a higher priority than HTML support, but I'd be glad of help to get it working.
