[MlMt] Keystroke for "Load Once"?

[Sherif Soliman]

Hi Annamarie,

You're right about the location. And I believe that unless you created 
it yourself in the past, there is no pre-existing Resources folder or 
any keybindings file in that location.

If you don't see a Resources folder when you get to 
`~/Library/Application Support/MailMate/` then you should create it, and 
create a KeyBindings folder within Resources. In the KeyBindings folder 
you can create the `Special.plist` file, or you can name it whatever you 
like as long as the extension is `.plist`.

For the functionality you asked about, the contents of the file would be 
this:

     {
         "L" = "loadImagesOnce:";
     }


Then follow the instructions in the MailMate manual link I included 
below, especially the paragraph that begins with "You can enable these 
key bindings in the Preferences (General pane)." I think you used to 
have to restart MailMate for the keybindings to take effects, that may 
or may not still be the case.

Does that work?
