I have a home computer and a work computer where I use MailMate and now that I'm getting more into the awesome customization I can do, I find myself taking work I do on one computer (setting up smart mailboxes, tweaking rules and conditions, etc.) and needing to duplicate that on the other computer so I have a "unified" email experience.

Is there a way to move these configurations from one computer to the other? I don't mind doing some manual work like grabbing an xml file, making manual changes to tweak an already established file, or what have you.

Hi, not that I have a solution for you but I just want to "vote" for such an option too. I use a desktop and a laptop and would like to have both setup the same way. One idea might be to do a sym-link for the MM files / directories which goes to a drop-box folder.

However, best if MM would allow to specify where prefs are stored and handles updates to it dynamically while running.

I thought about the symlink option but I often leave both copies running and I'd hate for there to be a collision on read/write and have the whole thing get borked. Hopefully we can get an official solution.

Until then, I'll continue playing with the plist files. I was able to move new rules I created for All Messages from one computer to another -- quit MailMate first, then make the changes. They came over successfully. I think smaller changes are better, especially if I have to deal with UUIDs.

Thanks, Jim
