Hi Stephan,

How have you told MailMate to auto-create submailboxes by flag color? I 
can’t see a built-in option.

I think this must be something to do with how flags are implemented. 
That your submailboxes are being named 0, 1, etc. suggests something 
akin to IMAP keywords is in use - which are stored in digit:value pairs 
- but I’m guessing.
