Hey all :)
Happy new year!
Some month ago I asked for missed feature. I tried to use Mailmate without that
feature, but it doesn't fit for me.
Therefore I like to explain the usecase, my motive more precisely.
I understand, that the power of MM are the smart mailboxes.
At the moment I don't need that power.
I'm completely satisfied with a couple of IMAP folders.
(Let's call them Folder1, Folder2, Folder3)
Mainly I use one single IMAP account.
(Let's call it MyMainAccount)
Only rarely do I use 5 other IMAP accounts.
(Let's call them Lorem, Ipsum, Dolor, Adipisit, Eiusmod)
I get an incoming mail in those accounts about once a week.
What is the intended usage of MM?
It is using the upper section with "Mailboxes" and not the lower section with "Sources".
What do I get in the section "Mailboxes"?
Mailboxes
>All Messages
ˇInbox
ˇMyMainAccount
SmartMailbox Folder1
SmartMailbox Folder2
SmartMailbox Folder3
Lorem
Ipsum
Dolor
Adipisit
Eiusmod
>Drafts
>Junk
ˇSent Messages
MyMainAccount
Lorem
Ipsum
Dolor
Adipisit
Eiusmod
>Deleted Messages
>Archive
What do I get, when I use the section sources?
Sources
ˇMyMainAccount
Inbox
Drafts
Junk
Sent Messages
Folder1
Folder2
Folder3
Deleted Messages
>Lorem
>Ipsum
>Dolor
>Adipisit
>Eiusmod
Compared to the section mailboxes the section sources in my usecase is a lot slimmer
and clearer.
That's why I would love to see an option to navigate in the sources with the space
key through all the unread messages.
Without the need of over changing manually to a folder or an account.
Yes, I'm very used to this behaviour from my Mail Client Thunderbird or from my News
Client 40tude Dialogue.
I love this behaviour of "Single Key Read".
What do you think about my feature request please?
Best regards, Andreas
