First, take the account offline to prevent it from trying to synchronize. If you cannot do this before MailMate crashes then take the machine offline first and then launch MailMate.

Second, hold down ⌥ when clicking “Check Now” in the Software Update settings pane to get the latest test release.

The crashing related to removing a source is an issue which I don't think is fully fixed in the test release above, but it might make a difference.

Cancelling that dialog, or hitting continue and then closing the browser window, causes MailMate to crash immediately. I'm assuming this is related, but I'm having a very hard time getting my other accounts to function normally. Things sit in my Drafts folder for hours, and new messages only come in sporadically.

This part is likely due to an issue with failed OAuth2-related events blocking for other events.  That should work better with the test release (I fixed a similar issue).

Let me know if the above does not help. You can also write me via “Help > Send Feedback”. I'm usually a bit faster there for crash related issues.
