[MlMt] Include original attachments when replying?

[Henry Seiden]

Devyn,

What version are you using?

If you are using reply (⌘ “R”) and getting no joy seeing the OP 
(original post) in your reply message, you might want to check your MM 
General Settings. Have you changed any from their default positions? 
Lastly, it may well be your user saved settings in your current version 
are messed up. Without a more detailed usage history, it’s difficult 
to determine. The settings are carefully defined in the full User Manual 
and also in the Help Menu.

FYI, on my install the OP (or a portion thereof if chosen) is quoted at 
the bottom of every new reply.

There is an option to select only the selected/highlighted portion, if 
chosen. Otherwise the full message is quoted. I have not had any 
problems with this feature.

Maybe another way to test this is save out your settings (the .plists 
mentioned in the Help section quoted below) to a separate folder 
temporarily and let a default set be generated to confirm which settings 
affected this feature. The info below is from the MM Help Menu, “How 
to transfer Settings to another computer.”  Also useful for that.

In this case you will be removing the old versions and letting MM 
rebuild them to default settings. Be sure you quit MM before moving 
these files. If you don’t see the expected results, try the next one. 
Then replace both the originals in the same places, after again shutting 
down MM. You should be restored to the way MM worked previously.

Again, I would try moving these out, one file at a time and let it be 
rebuilt by MM restarting in this order, then the next:
* /Users/<username>/Library/Preferences/com.freron.MailMate.plist
* /Users/<username>/Library/Application Support/MailMate/*.plist
* The remaining two - Bundles and Resources are not likely to be a 
problem.

Good Luck and happy hunting!

Respectfully,

Henry Seiden

 From Help menu… How to transfer MailMate Settings to another computer

To copy your settings to another computer you need these files 
(depending on what you have customized):

/Users/<username>/Library/Application Support/MailMate/*.plist
/Users/<username>/Library/Application Support/MailMate/Resources/
/Users/<username>/Library/Application Support/MailMate/Bundles/
/Users/<username>/Library/Preferences/com.freron.MailMate.plist
Note that the last file also contains most of what you have changed in 
MailMate preferences or have changed using the defaults command. You can 
only copy this file before launching MailMate on the destination 
machine. Otherwise, you might have problems with the file being 
overwritten by an older version cached by the system.
