Thanks for the log. This is the problem:
19:20:43 C: I6 APPEND "Archive Test" (\Seen) "21-Aug-2015 15:43:47
-0500" {42430418}
MailMate tries to upload a large message and the Exchange server cannot
handle it. The `"BAD"` response is incorrect, but as I noted Exchange
IMAP returns `"BAD"` for any type of problem. Select the mailbox and
enable the Size column to help you locate it (View ▸ Columns). You
need to delete it permanently to make it work. You can drag it out of
MailMate first if you still need the message. Then hold down ⌥ and
select “Message ▸ Delete Now”.
Since you had issues with multiple mailboxes then you might have
multiple large messages.
