FWIW, Mailmate still works fine with two gmail accounts for me: one 
managed by the organization I work for and another managed by the 
university that hosts us. So if Mailmate no longer works with your 
university account, I think that may be a decision made by the 
university IT department rather than by google.

I certainly hope so, anyway. If my two gmail accounts stop working with 
Mailmate, I'm going to be really unhappy about it. But so far, no 
problem.
