Hi Fritz,

I'm in the same boat as you, man.  The only difference is that I worked 
around the workaround :-)

Once upon a time, I had IMAP accounts.  Then I got lots of mail so I 
downloaded it to local folders.  Because my local hard disk was larger 
than the server's hard disk.  Then I wanted to use MailMate.  So there I 
was with my local folders on my local hard disk.  What to do?

So I installed an IMAP server on my local laptop storing mails in local 
folders on my local hard disk.  Then I moved the local mail to the local 
folders in the local IMAP server.  Problem solved.

Before:

     Email Program  <---->  Local Folders

After:

     MailMate  <---->  Local IMAP Server  <---->  Local Folders

So basically, the local IMAP server is just a proxy between MailMate and 
my mail, and everything is happening on my MacBook.

No idea to be honest.  :-(  I changed my system language to English...
