[MlMt] sluggist Mailmate - how to optimise?

[Chaim Kram]

Hi,

Like Jason I’ve also noticed frequent sluggishness and spinning 
beachballs only for the last 2 or 3 months. Plus the occasional freeze. 
Before that I never encountered any of this, ever. I have a MacBook Pro 
15” 2017 running Mojave (10.14.6).

Has anyone else noticed this of late? And any ideas as to:

1. What to do,  and/or
2. What and how to report this to Benny?

Thanks.
