Note that `${#source.path.noinbox}` only strips the INBOX from

${#source-name:/downcase} ${#source.path.noinbox/INBOX//}

This piece of wisdom may be helpful to others with a similar setup to 
mine (and similar OCD). :)


So it looks like we’ve got some good examples out there. I wonder if 
we could get a good working set for better documentation and what the 
best way to do that would be. I’m happy to fork the manual on github. 
Would others be able to do that, or perhaps just email to me?

No, this is still undocumented. The best you can get is the 
`specifiers.plist` within the MailMate application bundle. (It is, by 
the way, possible to create your own additional file of specifiers -- 
another almost undocumented feature.)

Perfect. I just used the last bit, since I’m already only looking at 
inboxes.


Is there a list of things that work with a leading #? And I think this

Source > Path > Noinbox


Playing around a bit with this and I tried using the options from the 
“for each unique value of” drop-down menu. Still not getting me the 
“Description” for each account, but at least I can tell which is 
which. Here’s what I’m currently using:


${#source.server.user/%40/@/}

which pulls the user name and returns the @ to its original form instead 
of the encoded %40 that gets reported originally. I’ve also got that 
dropdown set to “Source > Server” which for me results in one 
sub-mailbox for each account I have.


Another one I was playing with pulls the server address parts:

${#source.server.domain.second-level}.${#source.server.domain.top-level}

to yield something like “gmail.com”, but since I have two gmail 
accounts, that wasn’t specific enough.


Again, I’d prefer to show the same Description that gets pulled from 
my Internet Accounts System pref pane.

If the subfolder corresponds to a source (smart) mailbox, you could 
exclude the source folder in the mailboxes tab. Or maybe you can define 
a condition which will do it.
