I would think MailMate just hasn’t gotten around to deleting them,

the time I check mail on my phone. These messages never appear in
MailMate again once it thinks they’re deleted, but they are still
there. (I have access to the file system where the messages are
actually stored. It’s not just the phone.)
This sounds like the deleted messages mailbox of the account is offline.
Check the mailbox used for deleted messages under SOURCES.
I just had such a message. I restarted MailMate to see if it would
reappear and it didn’t, but that might have caused it to finally
remove the message because it’s no longer on the server.
Maybe there’s a delay between “mark for delete” and “purge”
and I’m shutting down my machine in between those steps, so it never
happens?
If the account is online then the delay should be very short. MailMate
tries to do it immediately, but when moving something to deleted
messages then MailMate does not delete it from the source mailbox before
it knows the message is in the destination mailbox (which never happens
if that mailbox is offline).

Rebuild** menu item?
Yes, but I don't recommend using it unless I've suggested it myself (or
MailMate suggests it and in that case I would appreciate a bug report).
Your problem does not appear to be related to a corrupt database.
