I must say I haven’t seen it jump like it was since I wrote. I am suspecting there was some message in my inbox with a lot of “active” HTML elements? Possible? But wouldn’t that hold true for while they’re in Deleted Messages, too? I just “know” it happened while I had a certain message from BestBuy in my Inbox.

So it goes. Otherwise I’m finding that MailMate usually is using equal or less total RAM than Mail.app when I’m looking at it plus its related Mail Networking and Mail Web Content.

Thanks for checking.

I am still testing MailMate and so far have but one thing bothering me. At least once a day I see in ActivityMonitor huge jumps in all columns for memory use - like by a factor of 3 or 4. For example, for the Memory column instead of the usual 200-300 MB I’ll see anything from 600-800 to well over 1 GB, in that column alone. It never goes back down, even after purging. After a MailMate restart things are back to normal.

Anyone else? I’ve never seen another client do such.

I've got a similar (and unfortunately quite old) report from a user and in that case I'm convinced there is some kind of leak, but it has proven difficult to track down what happens. This user has a very small email archive of just a few thousand emails. I'll note your email address and contact you if I have a fix for this issue.

But note that MailMate is memory hungry and if you have a large message store then it uses a lot of memory. It'll increase sharply until you have received and sent a few emails and then it should stabilize.
