That does indicate that the problem is in BusyContacts and that it may 
not be easily fixed. Mail.app has an OSA (i.e. "AppleScript") API that 
isn't replicated by MailMate. If BusyContacts is using functions of that 
API that don't have analogs in MailMate's radically different API (which 
is essentially just a wrapper around the "selectors" used for key 
bindings) there may be no way for the developer to also work with 
MailMate.
