You are correct that running out of memory would cripple MailMate and 
MailMate does require a lot of memory for very large message stores. The 
size of a mailbox probably matters less than the actual queries. 
Specific conditions like “From ▸ Address **is** 
foobar at example.com” are better than “From contains 
foobar at example.com”, but the most important to look out for is 
probably the use of the “is in” comparison method. I've also had 
issues in the past where date-based queries were much slower than other 
types of queries, but I believe that is working better now.
