This is new to me, but it could of course be a bug only affecting some 
users.

If MailMate is somehow “busy looping”, i.e., repeatedly reconnecting 
to the server then you should be able to see it in the Activity Viewer. 
Note that you can click on the connections to see the log in the lower 
part of the window.

MailMate also reuses connections which means that it does not reconnect 
to synchronize a mailbox if it already has a connection to the server 
(these connections time out though after a few minutes).
