MailMate Bundle to implement message snooze. Similar to the feature used in many mail clients today. I like the Spark implementation and used it as a guide for this bundle.
Snoozing a message does the following:
- Add a
x-snooze
header to the message with the wake-up date - Move the message to the
Later
folder - Mark the message as Seen and Not Junk
Make sure you have a Later
folder in all your IMAP accounts.
Make sure you have python3
installed, http://docs.python-guide.org/en/latest/starting/install3/osx/
You need the latest BETA of MailMate, which has special x-snooze
header support built-in.
Message wake-up by appearing in a Smart Mailbox when they awake. To achieve this create a Smart Mailbox, Snooze:
- Source the
Later
folder in each IMAP account - Set the mailbox condition to
Any
ofx-snooze is not within last 0 days
x-snooze does not exist
date is not within last 32 days
- Set the Displayed Count on the mailbox to
All
I use the display count on the Snooze mailbox as the indication something has woken-up. You could also set a rule on the Snooze mailbox and move messages to the Inbox when they wake-up.
