[MlMt] mailbox list display

[Benny Kjær Nielsen]

I just upgraded to Version 1.12.1 (5552). It seems that the new
mailbox list was discussed lately, but I did not pay much attention
since it focused mostly on Mojave and I am using El Capitan. However,
I am not happy with the new appearance. Is it configurable? The items
are spread more and font is bigger, so I see like 6 items fewer,
forcing me to scroll up and down all the time, which I did not have to
do in the previous version I had. Also, the background for the
counters is no longer gray but dark gray, making the counters somewhat
too strong, but that is less critical.

Try the latest test release to see if that is better for you. You can
also change the font size of the mailbox list using ⌘+/⌘-.

Just fetched 5563. It made only 1 item more visible, so no help.
Cmd-minus works but I had to hit it three times to show all the items
I want and the text is a tad too small now. It would be lovely to have
MailboxListLineSpacingFactor as parameter to adjust the line spacing
in the list (after hitting cmd-plus once).

Such a setting already exists but it has been broken in various ways.
The latest test release should work much better though. Focus the
mailbox list and then use “Show Fonts” to change the line spacing
(named Line Height Delta in the window).

Alternatively, change it directly like this:

defaults write com.freron.MailMate MmMailboxesOutlineLineHeightDelta
-float -3.0

No need to relaunch MailMate since this should dynamically update the
mailbox list.

Previously, the images/badges were incorrectly resized and the setting
didn't work at all if a custom font or size was not chosen.

It might be a good idea to use “Reset Fonts” in the General
preferences pane to get a clean start. (This now also clears line height
delta settings which didn't happen before.)
