The definitions in ~Library/Application Support/MailMate/Mailboxes.plist 
that Steve Mayer are user-specific instances derived from the canonical 
definitions in MailMate.app/Contents/Resources/defaultMailboxes.plist, 
which has all of the pristine definitions should you ever need them, 
including:

	{
		name = 'Personal Inbox';
		set = 'INBOX';
		filter = '#recipient.address = $SENT.from.address';
		uuid = "PERSONAL_INBOX";
	},

That's messages from the aggregated Inbox where a Recipient->Address is 
in the From->Address value set of the aggregated Sent Messages mailbox

	{
		name = 'Personal Inbox with Threads';
		set = "ALL_MESSAGES";
		filter = '#thread-id =[c] $PERSONAL_INBOX.#thread-id';
	},

That's messages from the All Messages aggregate where the Thread-Id is 
in the Thread-Id value set of the Personal Inbox.

If need to fix major damage to your smart mailbox collection or tweak 
things that MM can't (e.g. partitioning) you can edit Mailboxes.plist by 
hand with MM shut down, but it is probably best to create the skeleton 
of folders and sub-mailboxes in MM to assure that the various uuid 
fields that define the structure are correct.
