In the next update of MailMate, the following should work:
defaults write com.freron.MailMate OakBrowserAppBundleIdentifier -string "com.google.Chrome"I'm not sure it's a useful feature for many users though...

Yeah, I wonder. :-)
Thanks for adding it. I'll test it out w/the next beta release.

Just tested it w/the latest release. Works great! Thanks :^)

Great. Look out for the problem described in ticket #816 Latest test build is highly unstable.

So, Benny, if I wanted to change it to Firefox or Safari, what strings should I use? :^)
Thanks!

I see that "com.apple.Safari" works for Safari and "org.mozilla.firefox" for Firefox. Know any others?

You can use the following command to get the value from any application:
defaults read /Applications/Safari.app/Contents/Info.plist CFBundleIdentifier -

Hi, Benny. I've written up a simple little script to change the browser. It recognizes Chrome, Firefox, and Safari.
./mm-browser MailMate browser: org.mozilla.firefox Browser options: chrome, firefox, safari ./mm-browser safari MailMate browser: org.mozilla.firefox -> com.apple.SafariThis way I won't have to remember how to change it later :-) I thought others might find the script useful, too, so please feel free to share it.

Hmm. Maybe I should make this a bundle.

It's certainly a reminder to me that I should either make it easier to change hidden preferences (via a URL scheme) or add a GUI for more of the hidden preferences.
