MmDefaultMailboxSearchFilter ignored

Hi Benny,

thanks, it works with subject now. But I wanted to have 'Common Headers or Unquoted Text', which is not in the manual. I guess it has some shortcut for the menu item?

If I try this, mailmate just crashes when pressing cmd+ctrl+opt+F:

roland@ ~ % defaults write com.freron.MailMate MmDefaultMailboxSearchFilter -string "Common Headers or Unquoted Text ~ ''"

If I try this, it looks like it works ("Common Headers or Unquoted Text" is written in the Dropdown), but the matching entry is not selected, so it's just a search failing after every input.

roland@ ~ % defaults write com.freron.MailMate MmDefaultMailboxSearchFilter -string "'Common Headers or Unquoted Text' ~ ''"

Apparently, I cannot even remember all features of MailMate myself: Setup your preferred state after hitting cmd+ctrl+opt+F. Then use “Edit ▸ Find ▸ Use as Default Search”.

I'll remove the note on the hidden preference from the manual. The above feature is already described in the “Advanced Search” section.

Sorry about my initial useless reply.

Thanks Benny, this works like a charm (and is sooo much easier :-))
