By default, MailMate does not fetch the “[Gmail]/All Mail” folder. 
In the past it was because it would lead to duplicate messages, but I've 
made a workaround for that now. Unfortunately performance is not quite 
good enough if you have 100K messages, but I think it'll work if you 
have 10K (and maybe more). You can try this by subscribing to 
“[Gmail]/All Mail” after clicking “Edit Subscriptions” in the 
IMAP account settings.

I have some thoughts about this on [the 
blog](http://blog.freron.com/2013/mavericks-gmail-apple-mail-and-mailmate/).

The tags in MailMate are not synched with Finder tags (Mavericks tags) 
if that's what you are asking. It is, of course, on the todo.

There is no built-in reminder system. You can create a smart mailbox 
matching messages more than x days old (with some tag perhaps) and you 
could create a rule triggering some action when a message enters this 
mailbox (notification, sound, move to inbox). Unfortunately, I'm afraid 
the latter would currently not work. It depends on how I implemented 
that type of mailbox :-)
