Hi,
About a year later, I finally got around to setting up 2FA with FastMail
and using app specific passwords. Because of the experiences that others
mentioned in this thread, I ended up deleting my previous FastMail IMAP
account in MailMate as well as deleting the messages in
`~/Library/Application Support/MailMate/Messages/IMAP/`. I then added a
new IMAP account to MailMate with the new FastMail servers and
app-specific password.
Nonetheless, I'm still experiencing the sluggishness that Sherif
mentioned:
And now MailMate is extremely sluggish in starting up, and will often
freeze on startup. The duplicate message happened as it struggled with
this cycle.
I have MailMate running on two Macs, and it is happening on both
computers. If I quit MailMate and start it again, everything behaves
fine for a little bit of time, but then MailMate becomes *really*
sluggish with every action (typing text in the composer, opening emails,
rendering the previews of emails, etc.). It's making MailMate completely
unusable.
I'm probably going to reinstall MailMate and see if starting fresh
helps, as mentioned in this thread. However, I wanted mention this in
case there's anything I could do to help debug this, Benny, while I'm
still experiencing the problem.

Now, it looks like this should be ok with FastMail, but then it
seems something else happened. The redownloading of emails indicate
that the `UIDVALIDITY` value changed of each mailbox. Each email is
uniquely identified using the `UIDVALIDITY` of the mailbox and the
`UID` of the message. If the `UIDVALIDITY` value of a mailbox
changes then MailMate MUST delete its local cache of emails and then
fetch the “new” messages of the mailbox. There is no way to tell
MailMate to ignore `UIDVALIDITY` changes.
Hmm, MailMate should also warn you when the latter happens which
makes me think that this might be a MailMate bug after all. I have a
FastMail test account and I'll note to test what happens when I do
as you describe. Sorry about the inconvenience if this turns out to
be a bug.
I did not see any other warnings besides that first one.
For what it's worth (probably not much), this just happened to me with
iOS Mail. I updated to iOS 10 last night. So perhaps it is more of a
FastMail problem, rather than a MailMate problem? Note that I haven't
set up 2FA with FastMail, however. So I'm not really sure how
helpful/relevant this anecdote is.
