What are your favorite features in MailSuite, Lee? I was using it for Send Later, but that was added recently to Apple Mail, so I didn¡¯t need it any more.
I had to think about this reply because I¡¯ve grown so used to Act-On it seems like part of Apple¡¯s mail. It was tricky to remember what¡¯s in the mail program and what¡¯s been grafted on by Act-On.
I organize my mail with MailTags instead of having a myriad confusing mail folders. Most of my saved mail ends up in a few folders which I can search using tags.
Lots of special Act-On keystrokes are programmed do all sorts of things like set up mail templates, magically file and tag messages, automatically forward mail, address to groups and other such things. It really streamlines things when handling lots of mail or doing repetitive tasks. For example, I have a special address to which students submit assignments. Act-On is used to acknowledge receipt, tag and file the messages, and format the reply after I¡¯ve graded the submission.
SigPro customizes signatures depending on the address from which my reply is being sent. I regularly use four different accounts and have custom signatures for each one. It also handles the random quotations you see at the bottom of some of my emails.
There are numerous other pieces of MailSuite I don¡¯t use. Maybe Bill can fill in a few more uses.
Some of this stuff can be duplicated with scripting, but I¡¯m not sure how scriptable the new mail will be because of the lack of scripting for mail, or much of anything, in iOS.
