[MlMt] deleting unused and/or outdated mailboxes?

[Eric Sharakan]

Hi Maurice, I feel your frustration.  Benny, the developer of MailMate 
is generally very responsive and helpful, but it often comes in bursts 
of activity, followed by a week or more of silence.

But I can tell you that all the MailMate preferences files can be found 
in ~/Library/Application\ Support/MailMate/.  If you delete everything 
in there (when MailMate is not running of course) and then restart, I 
think it'll be like starting over with a clean slate.

And for what it's worth, we do have at least one other blind person on 
this list successfully using MailMate.  Sorry I don't remember his (or 
her) name.

Good luck whatever you decide.  I find interacting with my computer 
challenging enough at times as it is; I can't imagine trying to do so 
without my eyesight.

-Eric
