Re: [MlMt] Search parameter "is" vs. "contains"
Ah ha! Thank you! I’m still learning how robust MailMate’s search truly is, especially compared to other mail programs. I love how granular we can get, though it takes some getting used to! And the compound searches… just love it. Thanks again. On 13 May 2024, at 12:50, John Doherty wrote: > Rather than just choosing "From" in the condition, choose "From Address" from > the submenu.

Rather than just choosing "From" in the condition, choose "From Address" from the submenu. Then things seem to work exactly as you'd expect. Please see attached screen shot.

[MlMt] Search parameter "is" vs. "contains"
Hi All, I searched for this issue but it’s a bit tricky due to the common words used. I’ve run into a curious result when creating search / smart mailbox rules for the From address. Here’s what I’m seeing: - “From” “contains” “n...@example.com” — this returns the expected results (all emails from n...@example.com) - “From” “is” “n...@example.com” — this returns *zero* results I know search rules can sometimes operate differently than expected, due to the specific logic, but this one is curious to me. Why would a “from is a specific address” not work? Is it because the “from” actually looks to search like “Devyn Osborne (n...@example.com)” so is not solely the email address?
