![]() ![]() The most important of these is to back up your Mac before you start the installation process so that you can recover from any installation issues that may arise. You should also take basic steps to ensure you can recover from any install issues you may come across. ![]() Even so, it’s a good idea to review our Rocket Yard guides for a clean install of macOS Catalina as well as an upgrade install of Catalina. ![]() I simply merge the like-named mailboxes and this automatically files them into the proper folders.Installing a new version of the Mac OS is generally a fairly pain-free process this trend continues with macOS Catalina. I make sure that the messages are organized into the proper mailboxes before importing, and then there isn’t really any organization needed once they’re imported into EagleFiler. I prefer to import from Mail manually using F1. MailTags doesn’t tag mailboxes, so the imported mailboxes won’t be tagged, although you can add tags once they’re in EagleFiler. MailTags operates on messages, so after importing from Mail your messages will be tagged, and they will automatically show up in tag sources based on the MailTags keywords and projects. Messages don’t directly go in folders mailboxes do. Please note that EagleFiler imports mailbox files, which contain messages. Is there a way/program that lets me Tag files other than mail messages similar to MailTags prior to sending them to Eaglefiler. If I am saving files other than Mail messages to Eaglefiler and use the F1 key how do I direct it to a sub-folder or a particular library if I have more than one Library? If I understand the abilities of Eaglefiler correctly I should be able to store everything on my Mac in 3 places iPhotos, iTunes and Eaglefiler for everything else. I am trying to set up a system that is elegent as well as practical. I could use multiple libraries, but is they anything much gained from this and can you easily transfer between libraries? I could use the basics from (1) but have the messages go into sub-folder automatically based on the mailtags. I could then sort using Mailtags Keyword and Projects. I could open one library, and use apple script to automate the transfer of records from the inboxes say after 10 days. There are several ways I can think of doing this, can you advise which is the better. I would now like to move on to the main purpose of cleaning up Mail which was to establish a better work flow and archiving system on my computer, using Eaglefiler. Thanks Michael I think my Mail problems are now resolved. To stop Spamsieve working, am I correct in going to Mail rules and unticking the box next to the Spam rule or is there something else I need to do?Īfter I have everything sorted out is there any reason for not have Spamsieve and rules applying MailTags working at the same time?Ĭould you explain what the rebuild option in mail does compared with removing of the envelope index? ![]() Is it to much for mail to get a lot of new rules all at once?Īre there any other ways to apply rules or Tags that I should be aware of? If there were only a few messages from one send then I simple apply the Tag manually once I have the message open. When I have gone to Mail preferences and selected “Add Rule” filled in the conditions boxes and the perform following action boxes, selected “OK” then Apply Rule “YES” this is how I have been applying rules regarding MailTags. I many not be explaining what I am doing correctly, so here goes, please correct me if I have the wrong understand of how things work. There are now only about 10-15 messages out of several thousand that for some reason the rules are not be applied property, I will do these manually and see how mail applies the rules on new messages as they arrive. I deleted the envelope index as you advised, although it has not fix all the Rule problems Mail is seeming to run much quicker. I would like to sort this out before I transfer to Eaglefiler. It is applying on some and not others that is why I know that the rule is written correctly. What is still happening is that mail is not applying the rules to all mail received from the same source. When I said I was tagging the mail 90% by rules the rest manually, I was meaning I was going through the whole in box, having sorted by “From” and when there were many emails from an on going source I would then go and set up a rule, if there were less that 10 emails and I didn’t expect to receive an more i would go and tag each one manually. Is there a way of resorting or resetting mail and then switching on all the rules again? Is it possible that as a result of my removing a lot of sorted mail boxes and smart boxes, mail no longer has a remembers a pathway to the message? Thanks Michael, I have unticked the Spam rule in Mail, this doesn’t seem to have made any difference. ![]()
