palobo Posted March 31, 2013 Author Share Posted March 31, 2013 I can't make it work on my machine. It just says "Generation Mailbox list" forever: Hi Vaff, Do you have a very large list of mailboxes? If you right click on the workflow and choose to show in finder, there should be an error log. Does this have anything there? Link to comment
dfay Posted April 1, 2013 Share Posted April 1, 2013 (edited) I'm having the exact same problem ("Generating Mailbox List" forever), with about 300 mailboxes in three accounts. If I look at ~/Library/Application Support/Alfred 2/Workflow Data/com.palobo.mailactions/mbCache.plist , it looks like it has a complete list of mailboxes and accounts. But the "Generating Mailbox List" message doesn't go away, and I can't actually execute any actions. Edited April 1, 2013 by dfay Link to comment

But the "Generating Mailbox List" message doesn't go away, and I can't actually execute any actions. WOW, that's an extreme case there. Since this workflow is all AppleScript, speed isn't that great unfortunately. I'll have a look as to how and what I can do to improve upon that and if you don't mind, I'll hound you for beta testing since I have nowhere near that amount of mailboxes. Link to comment
Edwin Posted April 3, 2013 Share Posted April 3, 2013 Hi Pedro, Your workflow looks fantastic, but I also have the same problem (generating mailbox list" that does not go away). Yet, I don't have more that 100 mailboxes. When I look at the error as you suggested earlier, it says : 2013-04-03 15:10:38.234 osascript[9871:707] Error loading /Library/ScriptingAdditions/Adobe Unit Types.osax/Contents/MacOS/Adobe Unit Types: dlopen(/Library/ScriptingAdditions/Adobe Unit Types.osax/Contents/MacOS/Adobe Unit Types, 262): no suitable image found. Did find: /Library/ScriptingAdditions/Adobe Unit Types.osax/Contents/MacOS/Adobe Unit Types: no matching architecture in universal wrapper osascript: OpenScripting.framework - scripting addition "/Library/ScriptingAdditions/Adobe Unit Types.osax" declares no loadable handlers. Any idea ? Thank you again. Edwin. Link to comment

Any idea ? Thank you again. Edwin. Hi Edwin, Seems as though you have some sort of trouble with a Scrippting addition. Could you try something simple for me please so we can test to see if it bugs out with a simple script too. 1. Open AppleScript Editor and write this small script: on run argv tell application "AppleScript Runner" display dialog (item 1 of argv) end tell end run 2. Save that as test.scpt file and then from terminal run: osascript test.scpt "hello wolrd" Does that work or do you get a similar error? Edited April 3, 2013 by Pedro Lobo Link to comment

Edwin Posted April 3, 2013 Share Posted April 3, 2013 Hi again. First, thank you for your prompt answer. I tried your step by step protocole. In the Terminal window, I have the following message :" osascript: test.scpt: No such file or directory" In the error.log, I have the following message (which looks like the first one) : 2013-04-03 18:10:34.860 osascript[14007:707] Error loading /Library/ScriptingAdditions/Adobe Unit Types.osax/Contents/MacOS/Adobe Unit Types: dlopen(/Library/ScriptingAdditions/Adobe Unit Types.osax/Contents/MacOS/Adobe Unit Types, 262): no suitable image found.

I tried to save the script at different places (desktop, download folder...) but I have the same message. I don't know if this can be useful to you, but I also installed the Evernote 3.5 workflow (by Carlos Alberto Sztoltz) which uses scripts, and it seems to work ok. Thank you again. Best. Edwin.

dfay Posted April 3, 2013 Share Posted April 3, 2013 Hi dfay, Can you please check your error log as Edwin did. Tell me if there something logged. Cheers, PL Thanks for following up. error.log is Zero bytes and empty. 300 mailboxes are probably an artifact of the old days before rapid full-text searching, when anything that wasn't filed could get lost... - just checked and the oldest message is from 1997 Link to comment

I'm a little stressed for time currently, but as soon as possible I'll dissect Carlos' workflow and try figure out what could be wrong. When running the osascript command, don't forget to cd to the directory. If you're uncomfortable with the terminal, then try save the test.scpt on your desktop and type osascript ~/Desktop/test.scpt "hello" Link to comment

You obviously understood that I am far from being comfortable with the terminal ! I did what you recommended with the script and saw a dialog box saying Hello !

If you right click on the workflow and choose to show in finder, there should be an error log. Does this have anything there? Hi Pedro sorry I've been away from the forums for some time I still have the issue, but I have no errors. error.log is being generated, but it's empty. I do have alot of mailboxes ... exactually how many I don't know ... some of them are nested so it's hard to figure out without counting them manually. They span across 2 accounts. Link to comment
ChrisHumphreys Posted April 13, 2013 Share Posted April 13, 2013 HI Pedro I have the same product as above would love to use the MoveMessage (mm) but its never worked for me. I did the Applescript and got the window with Hello World and my error.log is empty Link to comment
Carlos-Sz Posted April 13, 2013 Share Posted April 13, 2013 This is one of my favorites workflows and I think Pedro knows it. I had some issues too but I changed some lines of the script and got it working here. I wrote Pedro about it. Link to comment
dfay Posted April 13, 2013 Share Posted April 13, 2013 Hi Pedro I've been playing with Mail Act-On a bit, but don't like the interface, so I'm hoping for this workflow.... I tried running getList.scpt in Applescript Editor (uncommenting the line ' --set Opt to "bill" ') and the result was correctly formed XML with the relevant matching mailboxes correctly. And as I mentioned before the file ~/Library/Application Support/Alfred 2/Workflow Data/com.palobo.mailactions/ looks like it has a complete list of my mailboxes. Likewise if I run getUnread.scpt in Applescript Editor. It returns an XML formatted list of my mailboxes with unread messages successfully, no errors. Also the minfo script doesn't work for me either. I get the two options, but selecting either one just dismisses Alfred without anything else happening. Let me know if I can help with anything - hope this helps. Derick Link to comment
rdpozo Posted April 15, 2013 Share Posted April 15, 2013 Having the same issues. Generating Mailbox list hangs forever. Really liked the idea of going minimal on my mail. Link to comment
palobo Posted April 23, 2013 Author Share Posted April 23, 2013 Hey everybody, sorry for being a little absent lately, but I've been swamped at work. Carlos-SZ has stepped up though and has made some great improvements. I'll post a link with his corrections ASAP. Please everybody test it and confirm the speed boost. I'll be dedicating some more time to this workflow in the coming weeks, looking to improve a little more and add a few more features. One I've currently got in a test is Envelope Index Vacuum to speed things up a little. Any more ideas please send them my way. Cheers, PL Link to comment
palobo Posted April 23, 2013 Author Share Posted April 23, 2013 Updated, please everybody check and see if it now works. Big thanks to Carlos-SZ Link to comment

Edwin Posted April 25, 2013 Share Posted April 25, 2013 Hi Pedro. I have now used your workflow during the last couple of days and here are three comments: 1-It is VERY useful and I used it with a great pleasure. 2-It is a little bit too slow. (I think that I could go sometimes faster using the mouse) 3-It would be great if the last mailbox found would appear again when Alfred is call again. This could save time. I hope that this is clear (and useful). Thank you again. Best. Ed. Link to comment

I hope that this is clear (and useful). Thank you again. Best. Ed. Hi Edwin Thanks for your comments. A few of the improvements I want to work on are: SPEED!!! Carlos-Sz has made some great strides in this but I still think it can get better; History, I'm thinking of maybe having it remember the last 3-5 maiboxes that were used. That way you could summon it up and action the results with ⌘+1-5. If however you start typing then it will filter mailboxes; Favourites, maybe rather than history I could implement a favourites for quick access, though I think history will be more useful; Other features such as export to evernote, create a task in TaskPaper, Things etc. this one I'm still not sure should go into MailActions or separate workflows as I have it now. Any ideas are very much welcome. Cheers, PL Link to comment
dfay Posted April 25, 2013 Share Posted April 25, 2013 This update has fixed my problem - it gives me the full list of mailboxes. Thanks for continued work on this. I think the improvements you propose are right on track. Link to comment
