Do you have a gazillion smart mailboxes or did you go down the "limited" route with an Address Book Group? Hi Mark,

The developer mentions an increased CPU load in his Mailboxer post.

Do you have a gazillion smart mailboxes or did you go down the “limited” route with an Address Book Group?

Activity Monitor reports near 100% CPU usage by mail.app. Looking at Mail.app's Activity Viewer, it's caused because mail.app is "Updating smart mailbox unread counts" on all the smart mailboxes that have been created. Anyone else seeing this?

Now I can easily get to one person's email in all accounts I might have emailed them in. BZ What this is really good for is multiple accounts.

I'm not going to miss all those little daily searches and particularly like that I can specify which contacts I need Mailboxer to cover. Yet again, your blog has helped me work better.

Is this less trouble than clicking in the find box and typing the contact's name or doing a Spotlight search? This just seems like unnecessary cruft for a sidebar that's already packed on my 13" screen. I’m all for SmartMailboxes, but this seems superfluous.
