Request: Auto BCC option to From: Address

#557

I see the option to set an auto BCC to a particular address. I would like the option to send the BCC to the From address of the message. My workflow is to do this and then upon receipt of the BCC, I

  1. Know it got out
  2. Decide the next action of the message (file, delete, schedule follow-up, etc.)

    It's an unusual workflow, but I'm willing to support such behavior. I've added handling of a special Bcc option named:

    defaults write com.freron.MailMate MmDefaultBccHeader -string "<.sender.>"
    

    When MailMate sees this value then it uses the From header to set the Bcc address. It is also updated in the composer if the sender is updated manually or when entering recipients. I'm not sure this is the best way to do it, but you can try it out when the next update is out.

    MailMate also has some support for requesting delivery notifications. See here. It's also documented here (not by me).
