Ditto. You have to go click elsewhere and then come back. Very annoying.
And I'm pretty sure it's not just MailMate.
I've also twice hit a bizarre input problem where my keyboards are still
recognized (I can bring down the keyboard menu and see them move as I
type), and command keys work, and keys work in apps without input areas
(e.g. LaunchBar). **But I can't type in any input area in any app, not
even iTerm.** I don't know yet if that's a Mac problem, or due to the
plethora of apps I have that intercept the keyboard stream, but it's
_real_ annoying. Reboot is the only solution I've found.
