macOS Catalina Support

Open markcarroll opened this issue 6 years ago • 24 comments

Upgraded to MacOS Catalina Beta 2, ran the usual upgrade path (terminal command etc) but this time it did not work.

$ ~/Downloads/ReplyWithHeader-v6.1/Install-or-Upgrade-or-Reenable.command

It looked fine, however when I go to the Mail Plugins section in the settings to enable, there is nothing there.

@markcarroll Thank you for reporting an issue. I will look into the OS Catalina issue. Currently, I have not yet prepared the beta OS, will do it.

However, once I run Mail.app I get a warning saying the plug-in is not compatible. It does now show up in the plugin list but won't run due to the compatibility issue.

Getting closer...

markcarroll avatar Aug 05 '19 17:08 markcarroll

The RHW plugin will load. I tested it on a clean Dev Beta5 install.

Add/Change the following lines in the Install-or-Upgrade-or-Reenable.command:

mh_mail_version=$(defaults read /System/Applications/Mail.app/Contents/Info CFBundleShortVersionString)

mh_mail_build_version=$(defaults read /System/Applications/Mail.app/Contents/Info CFBundleVersion)

if [ -f /System/Applications/Mail.app/Contents/Info.plist ]; then

mh_mail_app_uuid=$(defaults read /System/Applications/Mail.app/Contents/Info.plist PluginCompatibilityUUID)

add this after line 77: if [[ ${mh_mac_osx_version_p} == *"10.15"* ]]; then defaults write "${mh_plugin_plist}" Supported10.15PluginCompatibilityUUIDs -array-add "${mh_mail_app_uuid}" change the if statement on next line into elif: elif [[ ${mh_mac_osx_version_p} == *"10.14"* ]]; then

and lastly around line 129: if [[ ${mh_mac_osx_version_p} == *"10.1"[4..5]* ]]; then

Build the mailbundle with XCode and ignore the copy error from the last command in the script in the Build phase: "Bundle Packing and Deploy Local".

In order to get the bundle picked up and installed by the Install-or-Upgrade-or-Reenable.command script, move the created mail bundle from the <...>/Build/Products/Debug/ folder to the Misc folder and make a last change in the script to the copy command around line 114. Change it to yes | cp -rf "ReplyWithHeader.mailbundle" "${mh_install_path}"

versteegh avatar Aug 06 '19 15:08 versteegh

Thanks for the detailed response. However this still doesn't work for me. Still the version error. I will keep playing with it.

markcarroll avatar Aug 10 '19 15:08 markcarroll

Start preparing OS Catalina for RWH development.

jeevatkm avatar Sep 07 '19 23:09 jeevatkm

Any update? I tried your new install script on the Catalina GM and while it did install without error, I get an incompatible error when turning on the extension in the Mail.app UI

markcarroll avatar Oct 22 '19 21:10 markcarroll

I would also love to use it again in Catalina - missing this a lot. Happy to help with testing

thwinkle avatar Oct 23 '19 16:10 thwinkle

Me too: I'm available for testing on Catalina as you see fit :)

gcabanac avatar Oct 24 '19 11:10 gcabanac

I managed to get a build working and load this into Mail.app on Catalina, but now reply and forwards fail with this error:

Mail	-[HeadersEditor bringOutlookReplyAllBehaviour]: unrecognized selector sent to instance 0x7fa36d5086b0

markcarroll avatar Nov 11 '19 18:11 markcarroll

@markcarroll yeah, I have sorted out the installation script for Catalina os many weeks ago, After that I ran into Apple's Mail.app internal APIs changes. Honestly it seems apple did an overhaul in the mail app internals; many many changes, so far I did not find an appropriate APIs to integrate RWH yet. That's why you're getting an error -

unrecognized selector sent to instance

jeevatkm avatar Nov 12 '19 03:11 jeevatkm

Hello, what's the latest on this, please?

mshahat avatar Nov 20 '19 17:11 mshahat

I love this plugin. Is there any hope for a fix on Catalina?

grifjef avatar Jan 02 '20 21:01 grifjef

I too love the plugin. It seems the "Forward" function carries the header information correctly, it's just the "Reply" that no longer functions. Any updates on when the Catalina compatible version will be available? Happy to donate $ to the cause.

renelauzon avatar Jan 15 '20 13:01 renelauzon

@jeevatkm - please do let us all know if you're "officially" dropping this plugin from your supported pieces of work. It has worked wonderfully for so long until Catalina "broke" it. Seems so close with the forwarding feature still having the header, yet reply nothing. Again, no problem for me making a donation to the cause....just would like to know either way. Thank you again for all your past work

renelauzon avatar Feb 08 '20 13:02 renelauzon

@renelauzon and dear users -

I have not given up yet

Due apple extensive internal API changes giving me hard time. Also, my work is a bit hectic too. I'm trying to catch whenever I get time.

I appreciate your interest and support. Thank you.

FYI, #126

jeevatkm avatar Feb 18 '20 19:02 jeevatkm

I'd also like to see RWH support Catalina. I've been using it for a few months on Mojave and it's been great.

dgrenier avatar Mar 02 '20 00:03 dgrenier

Hi, No news for Catalina? May be it possible to fix in Big Sur?

sterid avatar Aug 01 '20 11:08 sterid

Hi @jeevatkm are you still working on this project? Big Sur is almost here and we didn't see a Catalina update. I miss your plug-in. 😄

markcarroll avatar Oct 05 '20 18:10 markcarroll

Hi @jeevatkm - we all still miss this lovely feature so much! Please give us all a hint as to how this goes and if you're work level will afford you any cycles here.

renelauzon avatar Oct 05 '20 18:10 renelauzon

@markcarroll, @renelauzon, @dgrenier, @sterid - Thanks for checking it. I'm really very sorry for the inconvenience. Apple really did big changes under the hood plus the new permission model. Its been many months I did not work on this; also due to COVID (work from home), my work hours are really messed up.

I will try to catch up and also I will look at Big Sur too to see; whether Apple kept any openings on Mail.app.

jeevatkm avatar Oct 06 '20 06:10 jeevatkm

Thanks Jeeva, it would be great to know either way!

Daskarzine avatar Oct 06 '20 06:10 Daskarzine

Jeeva, thanks for this great plugin. I found ReplyWithHeader when I was working in a legal environment and maintaining the header info in a standard and clear format was critical for using Mac Mail in this environment.

I look forward to being able to use ReplyWithHeader again in the future.

RMaxCt avatar Oct 17 '20 17:10 RMaxCt

macOS Big Sur is out. So I'd like to ask, if there's any hope or plans to support it. #128

GHubbler avatar Nov 16 '20 21:11 GHubbler

Did anyone found working API for RWH in Big Sur?
