    The crash is related to MailMate updating the submailboxes of one or more the mailboxes. Could you send me the following file:

    The toolbar search filed only “commits” on enter, so that would kind of be a fix. The detailed search interface has not been changed, but it's faster now which ...

    No, I'm also not sure what you mean by “closing the “Drafts” folder with the caret”?

1066 Syntax Highlighting for code regions was updated

    benny commented at 7:56 PM

    Ok, seems we should use ~~~ and the code styling done by MailMate is definitely lost.

    Maybe it works better with ~~~.
