[MlMt] Zoom and HTML messages

[Pierre Igot]

Hi,

With a similar problem, my solution was to create a couple of Keyboard Maestro macros, one for pressing Zoom In five times, and one for pressing Zoom Out five times. It works OK for me, but of course I still need to use it every time.

Ideally, just like MailMate has “history” features for signatures and for recipients (which means that it is able to “remember” which email account and which signature to use for which recipient), I wish that MailMate had a “history” feature for HTML emails, which would remember which zoom setting to use for which sender.

Maybe some to submit to Benny as a feature request?
