<p dir="auto">Regarding flags, is there a file I can transfer that would also do the trick? </p>

<p dir="auto">This is the same problem as for tags. Exchange only supports <code style="background-color:#F7F7F7; border-radius:3px; margin:0; padding:0 0.4em" bgcolor="#F7F7F7">\Flagged</code> and does not synchronize the <code style="background-color:#F7F7F7; border-radius:3px; margin:0; padding:0 0.4em" bgcolor="#F7F7F7">$MailFlagBitX</code> keywords needed for the colors (which is an Apple Mail feature MailMate also supports).</p>

<ul>
<li>tags : my understanding is that because my server is of the Exchange type, it will never work, except for the standard imap keywords (Seen/answered/flagged…)</li>
</ul>

<p dir="auto">Correct.</p>

<ul>
<li>smart mailboxes : apparently the smart mailboxes in the Mail app can sync using icloud, but since I am using neither Mail nor icloud, is there a way to transfer these mailboxes (using a dropbox-like procedure, or just by transferring a file or folder by hand, which would help me to some extent). BTW, where is the relevant information stored on the computer (if it is,and if accessible)?</li>
</ul>

<p dir="auto">When MailMate is not running then it's possible to copy the following file:</p>
<pre style="background-color:#F7F7F7; border-radius:5px 5px 5px 5px; margin-left:15px; margin-right:15px; max-width:90vw; overflow-x:auto; padding:5px" bgcolor="#F7F7F7"><code style="background-color:#F7F7F7; border-radius:3px; margin:0; padding:0" bgcolor="#F7F7F7">~/Library/Application Support/MailMate/Mailboxes.plist
</code></pre>
<p dir="auto">It's not possible/safe to “synchronize” it using, e.g., a Dropbox file.</p>
