<p dir="auto">one thing i've used in the past to remap keys is "karabiner elements" this might be something you can customize for your purposes. it can do complex modifications where if you press a key it does one thing and if you press and hold it with another key it does another thing. something like remapping caps lock to escape and capslock + something else does something else or caps lock with anything else will chord out cmd-ctrl-option-shift-{that key}</p>
<p dir="auto">the options are pretty powerful though the config files are a bit intimidating for most people i'd assume.</p>

<p dir="auto">Right, normal click on both.</p>
<p dir="auto">Also, the first one (⌘ +SHIFT+U - mark as read) keystroke marks a varied group of read and unread messages as read first, then a second click will flip it to unread.</p>
<p dir="auto">Yes, both are standard settings MacOS Finder for file handling. That’s how I discovered them.</p>
<p dir="auto">Benny mentioned in another post that he doesn’t want to include instructions on anything but MM app operation, not System defaults text substitutions or configurations. Probably a very good idea as they are subject to modification from outside the app, about which he has no control.</p>
<p dir="auto">I think it’s worthwhile for users to know that it’s supported in MM, as not all apps do (even though you’d think it was true everywhere, it isn’t). MM has added many features that take getting used to, but so far, none that affect the system setting’s functionality within the app environment.</p>

<p dir="auto">I don't see this with right-click (I see a context menu). Did you mean left-click? If so, this sounds like Standard MacOS selection behavior</p>

<li>Shift+right click = select a contiguous group of messages starting from the top, click the first one, then go the bottom of a contiguous group and then do this to select them all.</li>

<ul>
<li>All text based substitutions you may have in MacOS. Like the ⌘ CMD key, ⌥ OPT keys.</li>
<li>Fractions, superscripts, Universal charactersets if enabled in your system settings.</li>
</ul>

<p dir="auto">Given that these are bog-standard MacOS, I'm not sure why Benny should document them in MailMate's documentation. But I'm perfectly willing to believe that I've misunderstood something.</p>
