That doesn't sound good. So far, I have no other reports about this, but 
I'm of course very interested in fixing any bugs related to this.

If you have a backup then you can copy this file to get your mailboxes 
back:

	~/Library/Application Support/MailMate/Mailboxes.plist

You *must* quit MailMate before copying this file.

If you manage to do this and the rules disappear again then let me know.

I only have some notes on thoughts about how this could work. Something 
like Dropbox could be used, but I think it might be better to simply use 
IMAP for this purpose (the user could be asked to select a special IMAP 
mailbox for MailMate settings). It's not as trivial as it sounds though 
:-)
