 +===== Use E-Mail Alias Addresses =====
 +
 +Using different sender e-mail addresses (aka "aliases") for one(!) e-mail account in Apple Mail is as easy as that:
 +Just list all addresses in the "Address" field of the account configuration form separated by commas. That all ...

 +===== Get your flag icons back =====
 +//(1-to-1 copy of the reference below)//
 +
 +  - From Mail Preferences --> Viewing, uncheck "Use Classic Layout" AND the following:
 +     * Show To/Cc label in the message list
 +     * List Preview: 1 Line
 +  - Close Mail Preferences
 +  - Your mail should now show the flag color instead of flag name
 +  - Go back to Mail Preferences --> Viewing, check "Use Classic Layout"
 +  - Close Mail Preferences
 +
 +You should now see BOTH the flag icon color AND color name, but you can resize the column to hide the color name.

 +===== Use Domain PGP Keys with GPG Suite =====
 +
 +To enable the use of a PGP Key  assigned to one address as a genric key for all recipients within that domain, import the Key into your keychain, identify its fingerprint and issue the command((in the shell, i.e. a terminal window)):
 +
 +  defaults write org.gpgtools.common KeyMapping -dict-add '*@example.com' <fingerprint w/o spaces>
 +
 +to view all defined mappings, issue the command:
 +
 +   defaults read org.gpgtools.common KeyMapping
 +
 +to reset the list to a single entry, modifiy the command above to:
 +
 +  defaults write org.gpgtools.common KeyMapping -dict '*@example.com' <fingerprint w/o spaces>
 +
 +This seems to be the (only) legit way to delete mappings((the reference explains how to edit the *.plist file - but ... well :-/ )) - just recreate any mapping still needed.

 +===== Free space by removing logfiles =====
 +
 +Move files matching 
 +
 +  Library/Containers/com.apple.mail//Data/Library/Logs/Mail/*.txt
 +  
 +to some archive.
 +===== Enable/disable logging =====
 +
 +Select Menu Windows -> "Verbindung prüfen" (sorry, only german installation at hand, something like "check/verify connection")
 +
 +In the new Window (de)select "Protokoll für Verbindungsaktivität" ("Log of connection activity")
