10.4.3 is out — Improvements in Apple Mail

apple-logo-bw10.4.3 is out! You can download the Combo update (which might be a smart thing to do) from Apple’s web site.

It all went well for me. My Mail.app plug-ins and tweaks survived intact.

The release notes suggest a whole bunch of improvements and fixes for Apple Mail. Full details after the jump.

  • Addresses an issue in which Mail might prompt you to download items attached to an IMAP email message more than once.
  • In the Fonts & Colors preferences in Mail, you can now customize the font used in the list of Mailbox names.
  • Smart Mailboxes that use “Entire Message Contains” and another criteria with the “any” qualifier now work as expected.
  • Smart Groups of addresses can now be dragged from Address Book to a message’s To, Cc, or Bcc field.
  • The number of messages in a Smart Mailbox are now displayed in the title bar.
  • Pressing Tab while composing a Mail message now inserts a tab character, instead of four spaces.
  • Accounts created in Mail after installing this update will avoid an issue in which .Mac mail could not be sent if the Internet Service Provider blocks port 25.
  • Reduces the amount of blank lines Mail might insert into a message when forwarding or replying to it.
  • Addresses an issue in which some Mail rules could be lost or duplicated after a .Mac sync.
  • Addresses in the “To:”, “Cc:”, “Bcc:” fields, as well as the Accounts pop-up menu, no longer appear in red if the address is in a different lettercase than what is entered in the “Mark addresses not in the domain” field; for example, “Mac@MAC.Com” will no longer be marked in red if the “Mark addresses not in the domain” field contains “mac.com.”
  • Searches of “All Mailboxes” can now, optionally, include items from Junk and Trash.
  • Resolves an issue in which meeting requests sent from Microsoft Outlook to an Exchange account in Mail might not appear.
