Dries,

Make sure that in the MailMate preferences, under Software Updates that
you have 'Beta Builds' selected in the 'Watch for' item. Then ensure
that you hold down the Option key when clicking on the 'Check Now'
button. You need to do this to check for beta builds.

Thanks,

  Looks like I'm missing out on the latest beta build, double checked
  the

updates but I get:

  MailMate 4025 is the latest version available—you have 4025.

  First time this happens. Any ideas?

  Dries,

  From the release notes on the latest beta build (4057):

  Revision 4057 (Thursday, March 6, 2014)

  MailMate now allows signatures to have an HTML alternative to be
  used

for HTML generation. This has mainly been implemented to help out the

users which have to adhere to a strict company policy.

  There is no GUI for this yet. To try it out you need to quit
  MailMate

and edit this file:

  ~/Library/Application Support/MailMate/Signatures.plist

Add an html key to any of the signatures, for example,

  html = "Regards,\nBenny\n";

This works in both plain text and Markdown mode. In other words, even

without the use of Markdown, an HTML body part is generated to be able

to insert the HTML signature. Naturally, if no HTML alternative exists

then HTML is not generated.

  (This feature does not mean that HTML is now allowed in general when

using Markdown.)

  How did you end up doing this? Did I miss something in the most
  recent

update?

  I prefer plain text as well, but we have to use signatures following

the

company's guidelines at work...

  Hurrah to Benny!

  :-)

  Just keep this in mind: Your message is 44% bigger than it would
  have

been without the HTML signature. If ignoring the delivery-related

headers then it's a 73% increase :-) It's not much in bytes

(especially

not compared to attachments), but it still seems to be a bit of a

waste.

Not that this “problem” is any different than when using Markdown

with HTML generation which I do myself extensively.
