since three days i upgraded to High Sierra and experience since then strange behaviour of MailMate. From time to time the spinning wheel appears and MailMate remains persistent unresponsive. Strange thing: if MailMate is like this no other application starts anymore - until

I know sounds weird and is maybe not related to MailMate. But perhaps...

    Any ideas?

It certainly does not sound good. If your message store is not very large then maybe it would be worth a shot to force MailMate to start over (refetch and index emails). You can do this by deleting anything but the |.plist| files in this folder:

|~/Library/Application Support/MailMate/ |

Let me know if that does not help.

Could the problem be related to running low on disk space?

Hi Benny,

I've done a new clean installation with High Sierra and MailMate. I took advantage of the chance :)

I only reused Sources.plist, Identities.plist, Submission.plist, Signatures.plist, Tags.plist. Mailboxes.plist is from scratch. Refetched all E-Mails (~460.000). Disk has plenty of space.

Result was no change.

Then I shut off MailMate and switched to Thunderbird for around two days. Everything worked fine.

Back to MailMate Problem persist.

The symptons are:

- Good performance in Mailmate
- Fast rendering Messages in Mailbox when clicking around or switching Messages with the arrow keys
- Suddenly after a couple of hours the spinning wheel of death appears
- MailMate hangs

macOS continues to work but *some* apps hangs after MailMate hangs and show the spinning wheel. These apps are for example: Safari, Terminal, iTerm2. Activity Monitor.app starts but do not show content. I can kill them but the don’t start anymore. Only reboot helps.

Is’nt this strange?

MBP 2017
16G RAM
High Sierra

Could it be that MailMate has a memory leak in High Sierra which affects only some Apple Apps?

Courious,

Tobias
