This isn't a rating. I was trying to get the license key and accidentally clicked on the star and now I can't change it. I hate Google Chrome when I'm not loving it. I can't find my license key for Mail ActOn

I have all three apps from Indev.ca: Mail ActOn, MailTags, and Mail Perspective. They are all so well thought through and just work! You can buy their apps individually or in bundles. Mail ActOn allows to define both Inbox and Outbox action rules. You can for instance file outgoing emails by rules and send actions to OmniFocus. The developer is so responsive and helpful.

Yeah, these guys are really on their game. Fast and efficient. Not only did they upgrade to support 10.6.1, but they did it without breaking support for 10.5. Unlike a lot of other third-party developers out there who claim to be "adding Snow Leopard support" while still retaining backward computability to as far back as 10.4.

The Mail Act-On guys are real professionals.

Version 2.0.4. seems to break Mail's ability to Erase Deleted Messages and Erase Junk Mail. I'm using Mail 3.5 on OS 10.5.6. I have the same problem at home. Removing the MailActOn.mailbundle from ~/Library/Mail/Bundles will fix the problem. But of course, it will disable Mail Act-On. Tried to contact the developer, but saw no means by which to do so on his website. Hopefully he knows.

has anyone figured out how to sync keystroke rules between 2 macs?

Bclarkj commented on 02 Nov 2008
I love this program except for one missing detail. There is no longer any sync for the rules between other computers (at least I cannot find it). If it exists, please advise. Otherwise, great work. But without a sync, it has limited use for me until it does.

I had to pull rule sync late in the development process but it is in the works for 2.1

If you need to synchronize rules you can do it manually by moving ~/Library/Mail/ActOnRules.plist

I am afraid it is not the best solution but if you edit rules infrequently, it will do the trick.

Take a look at the description. This is WAY beyond Mail Act-On v.1, including (gasp!) outgoing rules for Mail. I thought I'd NEVER see this. Way to go Scott!

Mail Act-On 2.0 doesn't work with the latest Letterbox bundle either.

Yeah 10.6.1 definitely breaks Mail Act-On (and every other plugin I had working in Mail). Hopefully a fix won't be too long coming.

#%*&! The provided uninstall app is only for Intel! How the hell are you supposed to uninstall Mac Act-On?

I will be posting an update this weekend that fixes this.

To uninstall manually simply remove the MailActOn.mailbundle file from ~/Library/Mail/Bundles.

I thought I was just updated v1 (should have read the fine lines - my mistake) to discover that ActOn v2 breaks Mail (which couldn't load any message) as well as MailTags itself!!

also, no doubt that it is great coming from the creator of MailTags, but very pricy indeed if you consider that the 2 work together - and now you need 2 licenses!

well, back to v1 I guess... ; )

We are currently resolving a conflict with both WideMail and LetterBox -- This has been the issue for a few people

This stems from a version mismatch of Sparkle -- the automatic update engine.

Yup, Mail Act-On 2.0 is incompatible with the WideMail plug-in - confirmed by moving WideMail to disabled bundles folder and relaunching mail.

It works fine on my end with Mail.Appetizer 1.3b1
(I am assuming you are running Leopard right?)

I cannot download MailRecent -- it seems to be off line.

And of course it works with MailTags2

Email me directly (smorr@indev.ca) and lets see if we can solve your problems.
