is rumored to have said:</p>
<blockquote><p dir="auto">Would someone point me to information about how to specify which headers automatically appear at the top of received messages?</p>
<p dir="auto">MailMate Help describes compact mode and extended mode, but doesn’t say how to switch between them, nor how to specify that a certain header should always appear if present.</p>
</blockquote><p dir="auto">I believe this is something Benny broke somewhere around r5900 with a rework of message rendering. There's a "Show headers" command in the Format menu but it is always dimmed.</p>
<p dir="auto">There's a file at /Applications/MailMate.app/Contents//Resources/Layouts/headersFormatting.plist which seems to control the reading pane headers, but the details of its use and grammar are not documented. You MAY be able to override that with a file of the same name in ~/Library/Application Support/MailMate/Resources/Layouts/ but that is only true if that original .plist is still used and is overridable. Some years ago I tried using that and never quite figured out the right incantations.</p>
