MailMate crashes every time I try to create a new Smart Mailbox

#2096

Hi there,

I've just started using MailMate and I love it so far --- with one caveat. It crashes on me every time I try to make a new Smart Mailbox. I've already made a few and want to make some more, but I can't.

I'm attaching the crash report. Let me know if you want any other information. Thanks!

    It seems like somehow it triggers a recursively defined mailbox, but I'm not 100% sure.

    Could you send me the following file using “Help ▸ Send Feedback”:

    /Users/<username>/Library/Application Support/MailMate/Mailboxes.plist

    Then I might be able to reproduce it.

    It might also matter which mailbox is selected when you create the smart mailbox?

    Yup, if I'm currently selecting a smart mailbox, it crashes.

    I've found the problem. You can prevent it by disabling “Include messages in any submailbox of this mailbox” for the selected mailbox. This is what causes a recursion.

    I've fixed it for the next release such that the new mailbox is not based on the parent mailbox if that setting is enabled.

    Hold down ⌥ when clicking “Check Now” in the Software Update preferences pane to try the fixed release.
