[MlMt] Selecting duplicates

[Michael Hucka]

I have a tremendous number of duplicates in my mail archives, and have been 
trying to use the "Select duplicates" command, but without any success. (The 
duplicates are unambiguous; they can be easily identified by the fact they have 
identical message ID's.) When I use the command, nothing is selected in the 
mailbox.

I know "Select duplicates" has worked for me in the past, many years ago, but 
at some point it seems to have stopped working. I'm currently running version 
1.14 (build 5937).

Does it work for anyone? Am I doing it wrong?

[Simon Kaplan (Personal)]

Yep, same.  Shifted to Fastmail (from using Google services) about 18 
months ago, its worked perfectly.  Highly recommend it.

I've been really happy with them. Migrating all my old mail was a snap 
and happened much more quickly than I expected. They also have 
MailMate-specific setup instructions, so they are MailMate-friendly at 
least to that extent:




I don't remember whether I had to use their instructions or not, the 
whole thing was pretty simple and straightforward.


I'm using their "standard" 30 GB plan. Paying up front for a couple of 
years brought the price down to a little less than $4/month.


Honestly, I should have done something like this years ago. Hosting my 
own mail server cost a lot more and although it was sort of fun and 
educational in its time, that hadn't actually been the case for a long 
time.


So FWIW, happy fastmail customer here. I expect to stick with them for 
a long time.

[Richard Rettke]

I Ken,

Although I still have some address’s on Gmail (only because I have not 
had time to move them all) I cannot speak highly enough of Fastmail.


The only issue I have with Fastmail is that I have always been a heavy 
user of TAGS in MailMate. Fastmail has a limit on how many tags (i.e. 
how many tagged emails) it allowed. They may have fixed this as it was a 
couple years ago I ran into it and I ultimately deprecated my use of 
Tags. Beyond that, Fastmail is tops in my book.

Re: [MlMt] good email providers that play well w/ MailMate [was: moving my mail from one server to another—will my IMAP mailboxes & their contents survive the move?]

[Robert Cutler]

I concur with John completely.

I had run my own mail server since 1994-95 — starting on a Mac SE (!), then for 
about 12-13 years on a Mac Quadra 950, and finally on an Xserve starting 
sometime around 2007-2008.

While it was a lot of fun and didn’t take a lot of my time to administer once 
everything was setup, the combination of new email standards being enforced 
(Google would only intermittently accept messages from my server), the mail 
server software not keeping up with them (it stopped being updated at least 10 
years ago), and my wanting to reduce my electric bill led me to switch to 
Fastmail last December.

Couldn’t be happier.  It all just works, and it was extremely easy to move all 
the email over without loss.

And the small monthly cost for Fastmail is more than offset by the reduction in 
my electric bill.

(I have no connection with Fastmail except as a satisfied customer…)

Hi Ken,

I missed you previous thread, but I would recommend Migadu.

Generous storage, and doesn’t limit on addresses/mailboxes.

Bills itself as standards based IMAP, and prefers plain text email (like us 
mailmate users!). Their support is great too.

I moved across 100GB using IMAPsync (command line migration tool). Worked 
perfectly.

Hope that helps.

Seamus

I've been using Fastmail since 2015, when they seamlessly absorbed Pobox, my 
provider since 1998. Their Mailstore hosted service provides up to 50 GB. I've 
never experienced noticeable downtime, their technical support is prompt and 
helpful, and basically, I've never encountered any significant problems 
whatsoever.

I have my own domain name, and one of the advantages is that I can instantly 
generate any custom email address within that domain. I use this to assign 
every business or nonprofit entity with whom I correspond its own email 
address, which makes identifying where a spammer got my address a snap. (It's 
also useful with mailing lists.) I also make extensive use of their server-side 
filtering functionality, which pre-sorts my email into my various IMAP 
mailboxes. This is extremely useful when I have to access my email on the Web 
or on a computer I don't own--that is, when I don't have MailMate. Finally, 
I've found their user-configurable spam filtering to be more than adequate for 
my needs; no need for SpamSieve or another additional product.

In case you're still wondering, I recommend them. :)
