Column view doesn't stick on View -> Columns -> Use as Default Columns

#1825

I go to View -> Columns to select those I want to see in the list of messages pane for my Inbox. I quit out, then go back in. The columns displayed are back to the way they were before.

I again go to View -> Columns to select those I want to see, and then do View -> Columns -> Use as Default Columns. I quit out, then go back in. The columns displayed are again back to the way they were originally.

What am I doing wrong?

Many thanks!

    You have run into a known bug which I'm taking a very long time to fix (because I need to rewrite all code related to storing mailbox columns). Using a Terminal window you can reset everything MailMate has stored about columns like this:

    defaults delete com.freron.MailMate MmMailboxRelatedStates

    That should give you a clean start and your changes should stick. I don't know exactly what goes wrong or how to get MailMate into this non-sticky state, but it should be fixed when I get around to making the rewrite mentioned.

    Sorry about the inconvenience of this issue.
