Release all keys.
Hold down the command key and drag MailMate to your Applications
folder.
That should fix it.
Thanks, but this is an update that MailMate itself is trying to install,
even though it knows it is up to date. It’s not a human initiated
download. So
1. Why is it think it has to update software that is already up to
date.
2. Why does it think it is a read-only filesystem when the system is
too old to have a read-only filesystem (other than on an external drive,
that this isn’t).

MailMate is running on a read-only file system and can therefore not
be updated.
If you downloaded MailMate from the internet then moving it out of
the Downloads folder should solve the problem.
^ ^ ^ ^
The system is a Mid 2011 11” MacBook Air running High Sierra
10.13.6. The filesystem is APFS with the base drive having one
container “Container disk1” that contains one Volume “Macintosh
HD”. It has no read-only volumes.
Has anyone else seen this?
