Lighthouse has a new layout. Prefer the old one? Return to the old layout, and switch back any time from the link at the top of each page.

new message window over the main window

#167

Hello!

When I write a new message, I sometimes close the main window of MailMate. Then, it happens I need to retrieve an information in another application. To come back to my new message, I click on the dock icon of MailMate and ... I get the main window of MailMate.

Of course, I could use CMD+TAB instead of clicking, but I prefer this way and I think it could be more convenient to give a kind of priority to "special" windows (such as a new message window or a "simple" message window) over the main window of MailMate.

    I have followed Apples style on this one and I probably won't change the
    default behavior. It would frustrate many users if they needed to search
    for the menu item to get back to the mailbox viewer window.

    I guess it could be a (hidden) option though... Ok, next update includes
    the following hidden option:

    defaults write com.freron.MailMate MmShowAnyViewerOnDockIconClick -bool

    yes
