In my opinion, those items should not be in Deleted Items. It's a mess that these items/folders are available over IMAP at all and I have no idea why Exchange does this.

Of course.

Yes, this is tricky when MailMate cannot fetch them and therefore knows nothing about them. You can use MailMate to see where they are located relative to other messages (based on UID). There's a chance that they'll date-wise be in the same “area”.

Maybe also use the Activity Viewer in MailMate to see what exactly the server tells you when this fails. There's a chance though that it's just some kind of nonsensical error number after a so-called “BAD” IMAP response.
