[MlMt] syncing rules etc (was "Rules didn't come along with update")

[Jason Davies]

I could also do with something similar, i.e. updating Application 
Support files via dropbox: I'm constantly having to change my signature 
and since I use four different computers, it's a real pain to have to do 
it on each and every one. Would a symlink to dropbox work? (I would have 
to quit Mailmate every time I left a machine, I realise, to prevent a 
clash)

The Omnisync sync might work differently (I assume so or they wouldn't 
have invented it). Might be worth officially or unofficially exploring 
whether that is more graceful;)
