Given the work I've done on code related to this I would say it's most likely a new bug, but just to make sure you should try an older release like this one: https://updates.mailmate-app.com/archives/MailMate_r5523.tbz In any case, see if you can spot anything which might make this third account different than the others (a quick attempt to reproduce your issue didn't succeed -- the Bcc header updates when I change the From header). -- Benny https://freron.com/become_a_mailmate_patron/ ___ mailmate mailing list mailmate@lists.freron.com https://lists.freron.com/listinfo/mailmate
Re: [MlMt] auto-BCC the From address fails on one address of three
Got it! The problem is definitely new since r5523 (thanks for the link to that older version, Benny), and it's connected to the problem account having only one name in the "Full Name" field: that is, the account looks like "Shoshanna " rather than "Shoshanna Green ". I tested by editing the account to make it "Shoshanna Test ", quit and restarted MailMate, and the BCC address updated as it ought to. Edited the account again to remove the fake surname, quit and restarted, and it's back to failing. I hope that narrows it down enough to allow an easy fix!

It's complex! But I did just manage to deliberately trigger it. I opened a composer window from the inbox of a Gmail account, and entered as the recipient someone I had most recently written to from a non-Gmail account. As soon as I hit tab to move to the next header field, MailMate correctly changed both the sending identity and the BCC address from the Gmail one to the non-Gmail one. I hit tab a couple of times to move the cursor into the message body. Then I changed the sending identity back to the Gmail account. The BCC address did not change. This has been fully reproducible across the dozens of times I've tested it, including changing the sending identity to two different Gmail accounts. (It may be the *only* case that has been fully reproducible so far; and there are so many variables that I still wouldn't put my life on its being 100% perfectly consistent...) Tabbing only as far as the subject line before changing the sending identity sometimes, but not always, meant that the BCC address did not change to match the new sending identity. If I clicked to put the cursor into the message body (rather than tabbing) and then changed the sending identity, the BCC address usually correctly changed, but sometimes didn't. Starting again in the inbox of a Gmail account, I composed a message to a recipient to whom I've most recently written from that same account. When I tabbed into the message body and then changed the sending identity to either a different Gmail account or to the non-Gmail account, the BCC address did correctly change. I haven't tested this variation as many times, though. Starting in the inbox of the non-Gmail account, I opened a composer window and entered as the recipient someone to whom I had most recently written from a Gmail account. As soon as I hit tab to move to the next header field, MailMate correctly changed both the sending identity and the BCC address from the non-Gmail one to the Gmail one. I tabbed into the message body and then changed the sending identity, and the BCC address failed to change to match it. However, if I tabbed only as far as the subject line, and then changed the sending identity, the BCC address did change to match; and if I then tabbed from there into the message body and changed the sending identity again, the BCC address again changed to match. Moreover, I just tried to reproduce this, and this time when I tabbed only as far as the subject line and then changed the sending identity, the BCC address did *not* change to match it. You can see how complex this is! Also I have no idea whether the fact that I keep coming back to this composer window to add updates, between all the opening of other composer windows and changing of sending identities, is affecting anything. So, uh, I hope this helps narrow the problem down? Shoshanna Green shoshan...@gmail.com ___ mailmate mailing list mailmate@lists.freron.com https://lists.freron.com/listinfo/mailmate

The trigger was to first change the From header and then tab past the Bcc header. This would put MailMate into a state where subsequent changes of the From header would fail to update the Bcc header.
