Oliver,

I didn’t think of that, due to previous experiences that with every

This makes upgrading quite difficult.

But it could be a good idea


OS X Server does indeed break things on upgrades, to the point where I 
am loathe to put too much trust in it.


The latest "improvement" in DNS for example took away the ability to 
search for individual entries, the search now operates on the zone 
names.


I cannot help but think it's part of the general attempt to push us 
"into the cloud". With the amount of data I have for the bandwidth 
available that's a non-starter.

When piping data into the bbedit tool, you can now add a line number

I've just tested this and it puts the cursor at the beginning of line 5,

Yep, I saw this too, **BUT** I cannot find an alternative to put the

Hmm.

ls -la | wc -l
 404
ls -la | bbedit +

puts the cursor on the last line of the file, a blank line in this 
example.


Let's try a file which ends in a full line, but without  at the end:

bbedit +999 x.py # puts the cursor at the end of the last line.

FWIW, I've been using TextWrangler in a similar way for newsgroup posts,
called by slrn.  What I find there is that I want the cursor positioned
at the beginning of the post body, so that I can start at the beginning
and strip out unwanted quoted text, just leaving the relevant quoted 
text
plus my reply (possibly interleaved where answering more than one 
point).


Yes TW does select the entire line, but that's not a problem when I'm

The MailMate bundle is probably always going to be slower than 
drag-and-drop because it compiles and runs a separate AppleScript 
command for each message. This is also why you get a notification per 
message rather than one for the batch.


Understood.

You can adjust in System Preferences how notifications are displayed, 
but not whether they are posted or recorded. It may be that the system 
kept displaying notifications after you had turned it off because it 
was still processing old notifications.


That could indeed be the case.

To stop the notifications entirely, you would need to use the 
DisableNotificationCenter esoteric preference:


http://c-command.com/eaglefiler/help/esoteric-preferences


Done, and I will monitor this.

If you have further questions about this, please feel free to contact 
me at eaglefi...@c-command.com.


In contrast, 3,800 messages went into EF via dragging in about 6 
minutes.


It's taking 6 minutes because there are so many separate files. If you 
import from Apple Mail, EagleFiler would generate a mbox file and do 
the import in 30 seconds or so. My guess is that the new MailMate 
Export bundle would work similarly.


I was actually quite pleased with 6 minutes.  It's not something I plan 
on doing very often.


However, I ran into a real show stopper for me - EF doesn't support 
UTF-8.


From DefaultMessageEncoding at
http://c-command.com/eaglefiler/manual#esoteric-preferences

When a message doesn’t specify which text encoding it uses, 
EagleFiler has
to guess. An incorrect guess may cause the message to display using 
strange
accents or garbage characters. By default EagleFiler guesses 
MacRoman, but

you can change it to guess ISO Latin 1 instead.


EagleFiler does support UTF-8. For example, the message that you just 
sent declares itself as:


Content-Type: text/plain; charset=utf-8; Format=flowed

and the Unicode characters at the end display properly in EagleFiler 
(as does Grüsse).


The DefaultMessageEncoding esoteric preference only applies when the 
message (improperly) uses non-ASCII characters without specifying what 
encoding they are in.  I don't think I've ever seen a message that did 
this using UTF-8. Generally, it is older mail clients that would, 
e.g., send the message as MacRoman with no explicit encoding, so that 
it would only display properly if the client knew to assume that it 
was in MacRoman. This was back when apps didn't support Unicode, so it 
shouldn't be an issue with modern mail clients. However, if you do 
come across a message that is using UTF-8 without specifying it, you 
could set the esoteric preference accordingly:


x-eaglefiler://default?k=DefaultMessageEncodingv=utf-8


This resolves a non-mail related artefact I have been seeing, so thanks 
for that - unfortunately this isn't in the current EagleFiler manual.


I have a load of mails in German where each and every accented 
character
gets mangled by EF. E.g. Freundliche Grüsse (~=Regards) displays 
in EF as
Freundliche Gr=FCsse, and it's a similar disaster with other 
accented

characters.


Please send one of the problem .eml files to 
eaglefi...@c-command.com so that I can look into this.


Will do, though I've now stumbled across a different problem.  It 
appears that any mail containing Unicode characters gets encoded.


Content-Type: text/plain; charset=utf-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: base64

Expected behaviour when there are still 7 bit mail gateways out there, 
but when imported into EagleFiler I just see the encoded block.


Thanks very much for your prompt response.  It is much appreciated.

For direct incoming delivery to mail addresses your own domain, yes: 
as it is with any SMTP server.


However, if you just want Server for the IMAP side of the mail 
service, i.e. somewhere to stash mail locally so you can remove it 
from dependence on an ISP's IMAP service, Server is happy to turn on 
its Mail service with nothing but a private IP (192.168.*, 10.* 
etc.) and never receive mail via SMTP. That's a bit wasteful of 
resources (i.e. you're running Postfix for no reason...) but it does 
give one a working Dovecot IMAP instance without having to read the 
copious Dovecot docs to figure out how much of it is entirely unneeded 
for a trivial deployment.


That sounds useful thanks, and with that knowledge I'm inclined to do 
battle with OS X Server again :-)

contents etc and hey presto I had my own private cloud.  This was 
using Drupal 6; Drupal 7 was too resource intensive for my then laptop.


For backups I had cronjobs running on the ISP host which dumped the 
MySQL database(s) and created a tarball of the directories, and another 
job on my home system which grabbed those backups.


If you have a suitable desktop or server at home which is reachable from 
the outside world, there's no reason why you can't do the same, and skip 
the hosting ISP bit.

Inspired by the addition of DEVONThink, I also added an EagleFiler 
bundle. If you are running the 64 bit beta of MailMate then it should 
pop up automatically in the list of bundles in the Bundles preferences 
pane (it can take a few hours before it happens).


Thank you.  I have both DEVONThink and EagleFinder.  I've just had 2 
weeks with a non-functioning
internet connection, and that has concentrated my mind on keeping stuff 
local as well as online.

I have various requests which could be described as a “Do not

guess I should add to my notes that you would like an automated “Do 
not disturb” feature :-)


I could have used that in my last job. It would have been very useful 
for keeping my PC quiet during our regular 9 am daily meeting, lunch 
hour etc.

Re: [MlMt] Draft saving

The forcing of a save sounds like the real cause of the problem here.

Have you thought of that ~ is your home folder, which is expanded to 
/Users/username? The path names are then (under the assumption 
that your user name is blair):


/Users/blaire/Library/Application Support/MailMate/
/Users/blaire/Library/Preferences/com.freron.MailMate.plist


The problem with ~/Library/Application Support/MailMate/ is that it 
contains a space.


If you try enclosing the full string in quotes to get around the space 
problem, the tilde
will not be interpreted by the shell.  Coincidentally I am halfway 
through explaining this

to someone else, so here's an example I already have:

touch 'foo bar.txt'
mini:~ paul$  cd Documents/

tilde inside either single or double quotes doesn't work:

mini:~ paul$ /Documents ls '~/foo bar.txt'
ls: cannot access ~/foo bar.txt: No such file or directory

mini:~ paul$ /Documents ls ~/foo bar.txt
ls: cannot access ~/foo bar.txt: No such file or directory

$HOME does work, but only within double quotes:

mini:~ paul$ /Documents ls '$HOME/foo bar.txt'
ls: cannot access $HOME/foo bar.txt: No such file or directory

mini:~ paul$ /Documents ls $HOME/foo bar.txt
/Users/paul/foo bar.txt

The only way to use tilde successfully is to escape the spaces in the 
filename with \


mini:~ paul$ /Documents ls ~/foo\ bar.txt
/Users/paul/foo bar.txt

[MlMt] How do I change the shortcuts for Message Body Parts?

2014-08-13 Thread Muster Hans
The default shortcuts for View - Message Body Parts are alt-cmd-] and 
alt-cmd-[


I am using a Swiss keyboard, which uses alt-5 and alt-6 to represent [ 
and ] respectively.  Therefore alt + [ or alt + ] are unavailable to me.


1. How do I change the shortcuts for these actions?
2. Does anyone have a suitable suggestion for replacement shorcuts? 
(less important)
