Sorry about the loss of settings. That was quite a lot. Except for key
bindings then all of it are settings saved in this file:
~/Library/Preferences/com.freron.MailMate.plist
But MailMate does not access this file directly. It happens indirectly
via an Apple API and this makes it unlikely that a MailMate bug (even
when crashing) would destroy/corrupt this file.
Also, the key bindings file is read-only. MailMate never writes to it.
Again, this makes it unlikely to be destroyed/corrupted by a MailMate
bug.
So I'm not sure what I can tell you, but you can try finding these files
in a backup. I kind of doubt that these files are the only problem
though (based on your description).
Let me know if you have more information -- especially if it points in
the direction of a MailMate bug.
