[This 
discussion](https://productforums.google.com/forum/#!topic/inbox/m79u7BngKXI) 
seems to indicate that “Done” corresponds to emails which only exist 
in “[Gmail]/All Mail”. In that case, it might work to tell MailMate 
to use “[Gmail]/All Mail” as its archive folder. Also make sure to 
read this: https://manual.mailmate-app.com/account_setup#gmail

(I'm not promising that this works. It's extremely tricky to make an 
IMAP email client work in a sensible way with Googles 
“interpretation” of IMAP.)
