<p dir="auto">Well sort of. Not being a programmer I misinterpreted the directions a bit so will add this clarification for future readers of this thread.</p>
<p dir="auto">The line that will have the from etc still needs to have conditions =<br>
The condition you are doing - in my case from.. Etc needs to be in quotes.</p>
<p dir="auto">I know that this is a natural for the programmers but I had to think about it.</p>
<p dir="auto">I’m SO HAPPY - thank you. And yes got a few more conditions I’ll build in to manage the other emails.</p>

<a href="https://manual.mailmate-app.com/hidden_preferences" style="color:#777">https://manual.mailmate-app.com/hidden_preferences</a> -- it will do exactly<br>
what you want! Copy the sample there to get the format the plist file<br>
needs to be in; then just replace the "conditions" line in the sample<br>
with<br>
<br>
from ~ 'YOUR-GMAIL-ADDRESS';<br>
<br>
(which means "the From: line contains YOUR-GMAIL-ADDRESS") and set the<br>
"title" and "details" lines to display whatever alert you want to be<br>
alerted with.<br>
<br>
The easiest way to figure out how to format your conditions, if you're<br>
not fluent in whatever syntax plist files use, is to create a smart<br>
folder with the conditions you want and then inspect its definition by<br>
quitting MailMate and opening the mailboxes.plist file to see how the<br>
smart folder is defined there.<br>
<br>
You can check for multiple conditions at a time, and have as many<br>
independent verifications as you want. I have about a dozen, ensuring<br>
that I don't send work email from my church-board address, don't send<br>
board business messages from anything *but* my church-board address,<br>
don't send personal mail to a work contact, don't fail to BCC myself or<br>
use the wrong signature (I have auto-BCC set, but if I change the<br>
sending address after I've begun composing a message the BCC or sig<br>
sometimes fails to change accordingly), don't reply to a mailing list<br>
when I mean to reply to an individual poster, etc. etc. -- the ability<br>
to set up such verifications was one of the factors that originally drew<br>
me to MailMate!<br>
