Sorry for not replying earlier on. I'm glad you found a solution. I 
assume that when you write “creating a new email account” then you 
mean re-creating it in MailMate (and not creating a new iCloud account 
at Apple). (No need to reply if this assumption is correct.)


Thanks for the link to the mailassistant. I had not seen that before.

Re: [MlMt] Select Duplicates

Is this functionality broken? When I select it in a mailbox with known
duplicates, it seems to select nothing.  How is it determining 
duplicates?

I assume Message-ID, but if it's trying to build some kind of tuple of

lot of
messages where I'm receiving copies through multiple mailing lists and 
I'm

not able to de-duplicate on the server-side.


It's not broken, but it's a bit primitive/inflexible. It is based on 
`Message-ID` *and* message size. I would actually like it to be more 
strict by basing it on a message digest value to make sure the messages 
are identical, but you need it to be less strict.


Using the `selectWithFilter:` custom key binding it would be possible to 
make something based on `Message-ID` only. It would work differently 
though:


* it would be based on the currently selected message
* it would select all messages instead of all-but-one (which is how the 
menu item works to make it easy to delete duplicates without deleting 
the “original”).


It's difficult to make the menu item work in a way that is suitable for 
all use cases. It might make more sense to implement the necessary 
“building blocks” to do this using a bundle command (2.0 feature). 
(These are building blocks needed anyways.) That would allow customizing 
it to behave any way you like *and* make it happen automatically using a 
rule on incoming messages.

it's okay - I figured you were busy. Assumption correct about recreating 
the account in MM.  I did get a helpful direct response from someone 
about how to delete the bad account. Sources not immediately obvious 
to me as the location.  You might want to have something in the Help to 
say so?


Mailassistant link came from the Apple guy. I hadn't seen it either.

I'm loving the Smart Folder Mailing Lists.  You are changing how I use 
email. : )  I can see that there's lots more to use.

Re: [MlMt] Confused about tags

2014-01-03 Thread John Cooper

When I select a group of messages, press t to open the tagging field,
and apply the tag mailmate, nothing is tagged. When I select any 
message from the group, it has no tag. Nothing appears in the header, 
and nothing appears when I press t.


The problem turned out to be an elementary misunderstanding of the 
interface on my part. When I apply a tag and press return, the tag 
appears outlined in the tag field, and I believed it was applied at that 
point. When I then clicked away from the selection and returned to one 
of the messages I thought I had tagged, I found the tag was not applied.


Instead, of course, you must press return twice to apply a tag—once to 
confirm the selected tag (upon which it becomes outlined) and once to 
apply the changes to the message on the server. I did not intuit this.


Why did I have success tagging individual items and not a multiple 
selection? I'm not sure. I probably blundered into the correct workflow 
without understanding it.


Thanks for your response!

What do you mean by “later”? This might be a hint since it should 
appear immediately.


But I would like to be able to apply tags in bulk. Is there something 
I'm not understanding?


No, I think it should work as you expect. Something is not working 
correctly.


You can enable the “Raw Flags” column in the messages outline in 
order to follow changes more closely.

Oh, I didn't think of that. Someone else reported this recently and I 
improved it such that selecting another message also commits the tag 
changes. You can hold down ⌥ when clicking “Check Now” in the 
Software Update preferences pane if you want to try it out.

It took me a couple tries to figure that out as well. (Once I figured out that 
pressing T would bring up the option, I kept expecting an contextual menu or 
something in Edit). I'm not sure how one light change it, it's a reasonable 
interface once you know it, but there is that initial learning curve.___

[MlMt] Moving large IMAP folders

2014-01-03 Thread Kee Hinckley
Is there in fact an underlying IMAP command to move a folder hierarchy (as 
opposed to rename)? Or if I tell MailMate to move a folder, is it going to copy 
and delete?

Having imported a few gig or so of local email, I now want to reorganize, and 
I'm trying to figure out the most optimal way. I can do it via MailMate, or I 
could do it via my webmail interface, where the move would be efficient, but 
then MailMate might download everything all over again. Is one way going to be 
better than another? If both ways are going to result in copying data, it seems 
like the server case might be the most efficient.

[MlMt] What is the equivalent command for the thread toolbar button.

2014-01-03 Thread Steve Lianoglou
Hello and happy new year.

I'm kicking the tires on MailMate and am loving it so far -- I
especially appreciate the extra work done recently to better
accommodate gmail labels (among many other things).

A few questions:

(1) I feel like I'm missing something obvious (sorry for that), but I
can't find the equivalent menu item to get the thread view achieved
by clicking the Thread button in the toolbar. Same goes for the
Correspondence button, too. I really just want to drop into those
views via some keyboard shortcut, but I guess the first step is to
find them in the Menu bar :-)

(2) Are there plans to somehow show the tags for a given message in
message-list component, somehow? Perhaps add an option to show a tags
column. Or maybe show the tags in the subject column (preceding the
subject itself) in a similar way that is done in the gmail web client?

Although we can view the tags in the headers of the message when it is
selected, I think it could be handy to be able to see the tags per
message en-masse.

Thanks for what looks to be a great email client.

-steve

It is going to be copy and delete. Many servers though do that just as 
efficiently as if it was a move (but not all servers).

do it via MailMate, or I could do it via my webmail interface, where

If both ways are going to result in copying data, it seems like the 
server case might be the most efficient.


Renaming a large mailbox might also result in quota issues on the server 
since some servers are going to measure each message twice until the 
originals are deleted.


It's probably safer to do this on the server while it's more efficient 
(for MailMate) to do it locally.


In any case, it'll at most be efficient for 1 instance of 1 email client 
using the account. All other email clients are going to delete and fetch 
just like if you reorganize on the server.
