Mail Type Select: Find emails fast in Apple Mail

mailtypeselectMail Type Select is a plug-in that adds Finder-like keyboard matching to Apple Mail’s message list window. That is to say, when installed, you can click in the message list window and starting typing. Mail will match on the first occurrence of what you type (you can jump to additional matches using the Control+down arrow or up arrow keys). It’s quick. After you have used it for a while, it could become second nature. Nice.

It’s freeware and the plug-in and source code are available from the developer’s website.
