Thanks to Erik Sharakan for his prompt answer. I actually realized this myself even before I saw his reply that notifications needed to be enabled in System Settings. Everything is fine now.

I don’t REMEMBER seeing MM asking me to enable notifications after I installed it. Either it did and I missed it, or it somehow didn’t. Oh well. As always, we have Apple’s security theatre to thank for this.

Thanks again.

HOWEVER, since the move I find that I am unable to get MailMate to play ANY SOUNDS whatsoever. It doesn't play the whoosh sound for messages being sent, and it doesn't play any sound for incoming messages.
