Developer's Description

By University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill

Copy to, move to, or open a recently used mailbox.

MailRecent Mail Plugin adds "Copy to Recent," "Move to Recent," and "Go to Recent" menu items to Apple's Mail application. These menu items contain dynamically-updated lists of recently used mailboxes. The number of mailboxes kept in the list is determined by the "Number of Recent Items" setting for Documents in the Appearance panel of the OS X System Preferences.

Simple, clean, and effective
rbdancerAugust 29, 2012
Pros
As someone else said, "works like it should." Makes filing emails so much faster and easier. Makes navigating your mailboxes, especially if you have a lot of them, much more friendly.
Cons
Apple updates Mail so frequently, to patch security flaws I assume, that the plugin needs frequent updates as well. This time around I had to search to discover the updated version, as there seems to be no automatic update option. Small price to pay for the convenience, though.
Summary
If you use Mail as your everyday email reader, this little plugin will pay for the time you take to download and install it many times over.<br /><br /><span class='notifyMsg'> Updated </span>on Aug 29, 2012<p/>Oh, I see I was the one who said "works like it should." Hee. Well, I still think so.
Works just like it should.

Pros
Simple, lightning-fast to install, and quickly updated when Mail gets updated and leaves it behind. Shortens the time needed to wade through folders by a large amount. And it's free!
Cons
Can't think of any drawbacks after using it for a couple of months.
Summary
If you are even thinking about installing this useful add-on, don't wait, just do it.
Works as Promised

Pros
No-brainer to install and use. Provides functionality Apple doesn't.
Cons
Initial warning to back up all Mail files a little disconcerting.
Summary
Great little app that saves me a lot of time navigating through my many mailboxes. I switched from Entourage recently so I could upgrade to Lion on my Mac, and for the most part I think Mail works better. The Mail / Address Book / iCal interface is now as smooth as Entourage ever was, and I think I like having them stand alone better. I also like that I received an update very shortly after doing a major system update in Lion, minimizing any potential conflicts with the add-on. My preferred input device is a Kensington trackball, with the buttons programmed for many shortcuts. They all work just fine with the app, so it is really quick now to put mail away into folders or toss it without having to use the keyboard. I give it five stars for doing everything it promises, and doing it well and with elegance.
Only works with Lion

Could not try.<br /><br /><span class='notifyMsg'> Updated </span>on Oct 4, 2011<p/>I see that the developer's site offers versions for previous Mail and OS X iterations. Apologies for jumping to conclusions! I will change the star-rating once I have seen the software functioning.<br /><br /><span class='notifyMsg'> Updated </span>on Oct 8, 2011<p/>MailRecent works as advertised and is a great enhancement! Thanks! If I knew how, I'd change the rating to 5 stars!<br /><br /><span class='notifyMsg'> Updated </span>on Oct 8, 2011<p/>MailRecent works as advertised and is a great enhancement! Thanks!

This review was originally posted on VersionTracker.com.<br />Man oh man, I've been wanting this feature for a long time. Installed it, and seems OK here (almost a week now). Makes moving mail much easier for me. OSX 10.4.11, intel iMac, and OSX 10.4.10 G4 Powerbook. I do note the developer has 2 versions available: one for Tiger, and one for Leopard. I can only speak for using it on my Tiger systems.
WOW!
