You need to hold down ⌥ when clicking “Check Now” in the Software 
Update preferences pane to look for test releases. The r6015 release is 
the first one on that branch for quite some time. Before that, it was 
only possible to get the cutting edge releases by directly downloading 
them from the server. This was intentional since some users had 
persistent issues with some of the (major) changes/optimizations I had 
done a while ago.

I expect more "regular" test releases now and hopefully also a beta 
release soon. (Well, not much will happen in the next few days.)

That's good to know. Based on the crash reports sent by MailMate itself, 
it appears to be quite stable (I've only received 1 crash report).

I'm afraid it might just be more rare :)
