Related to this, but not concerning attachments…

Is there a low-level way to hack what is displayed in the header area of a message view? Specifically, the company I work for uses gmail corporate, and a lot of ‘delegation’ access to special accounts. In other words, I can login to my account and have access to send and receive on behalf of some generic accounts like support@ and info@ and so on. People using the gmail browser client can see what delegate was sending on behalf of that account. I of course cannot see that in MailMate. The delegate information is an extra field in the message’s header.

You want to add a specific header field to the set that is shown in a message view? That seems very useful. I don't see an easy way to do that. Perhaps someone else on the list can answer. (It might be possible to edit the MmMessagesWebView/stylesheet.css, as mentioned in https://manual.mailmate-app.com/customization, but I don't know and have never done it).

The View -> Show Raw Message command will show all header fields, but likely this isn't what you want.

Thank you for the reference to the customization page. I’d forgotten that and will look there. Your understanding of the scenario is exactly right. Also thanks for changing the subject of the message. I should know better ;-)

The main file you need to override is /Applications/MailMate.app/Contents/Resources/Layouts/headersFormatting.plist so you need to create ~/Library/Application Support/Resources/Layouts/headersFormatting.plist. You should start with a copy of the original and adapt it. You might also need to supplement /Applications/MailMate.app/Contents/Frameworks/OakMIME.framework/Versions/A/Resources/specifiers.plist which is done by adding a file with additional parser definitions at ~/Library/Application Support/MailMate/Resources/specifiers.plist
