Is GrowlMail *EVER* going to work right again? probably not.

I'm trying DESPERATELY to get GrowlMail working in Leopard and I'm having absolutely no luck at all. The 1.1.3b2 claims to have a working GrowlMail bundle for leopard, but it doesn't work.

I removed all the other bundles from my system, closed Mail and ran the GrowlMail.mpkg installer.

When I started Mail, no GrowMail icon appeared in my mail preferences and I am not receiving notifications.

I've been so desperately waiting for someone to fix either Mail.appetizer or GrowlMail for Leoplard. It is the one single thing I miss the most about 10.4.

Please help.

There's no need for the negativity. :)

Run these 2 commands, and paste the output:

defaults read com.apple.mail EnableBundles
defaults read com.apple.mail BundleCompatibilityVersion

Hi i also see no pref pane in mail, running 10.5.2.

If i run the above commands i get a result of '0' for the first command and '3' for the second.

Is this any help?

You have to fix the setting in your com.apple.mail.plist - check out this thread: http://forums.cocoaforge.com/viewtopic.php?t=16628

Thanks for your reply, i ended up working it out for myself, i typed the following in terminal:

Code: Select all

defaults write com.apple.mail EnableBundles 1
then reinstalled growlmail for 1.1.3b3. The notification of your post was my first proper growlmail notification in Leopard. :razz:
