<p dir="auto">You can quit MailMate and then edit this 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/Messages/IMAP/<account>/State.plist
</code></pre>
<p dir="auto">Make a copy for me first and send it to me. Then I'll also see if I can fix whatever makes these mailboxes get stuck.</p>
<p dir="auto">Maybe also try the latest test release before doing the above to make sure the issue hasn't been resolved: Hold down ⌥ when clicking “Check Now” in the Software Update preferences pane.</p>

<p dir="auto">Off topic note: I'm not going to be online much today. If something is not working as it should in the test release(s) then the latest public release is available here: <a href="https://updates.mailmate-app.com/archives/MailMate_r5479.tbz" style="color:#3983C4">https://updates.mailmate-app.com/archives/MailMate_r5479.tbz</a></p>

</blockquote><br><p dir="auto">Thanks, Benny, editing the state.plist fixed it. Sorry, I didn't try the test release because I had already deleted/moved the mailboxes I wanted to for now. What's interesting is that when I deleted or moved a mailbox, sometimes it did correctly vanish, and other times it wouldn't, so I was left with a ghost some of the time. I'm not sure if it is a timing question, such as what MM was doing at the instant I said to delete or move a mailbox. I doubt it has to do with the mailbox itself, such as it being empty or not or length of the name, but I didn't test anything. I'll send you the saved-off plist files separately and off-list.</p>
