MailMate is an IMAP client. Gmail uses an undocumented midification of
IMAP that it calls Gimap. MailMate is not completely compatible with
Gmail. IMAP services like Runbox and Fastmail are fine. Apple's Mail app
ran into the same problems with Gmail. Google is not particular eager to
have people use outside clients, so they are not of much help.
Here are the workarounds:

And I think there may be more tricks subsequent to this writeup: check
the list archives.
Basically, the simplest approach is to not use Google's labels, which
are proprietary and non-standard. MailMate is compatible with IMAP tags
and cagetories. Google's labels present themselves as IMAP mailboxes to
clients, causing duplication. I think Benny has an approach for people
who must use the labels (search the archives).

Hi all,
I’m trying MailMate as my primary mail client, with a large Gmail
account.
Messages in my [Gmail]/Sent Mail that are labeled/filed with gmail
tags are
showing up as duplicates.
Has anybody run into this? I suspect I’m missing something pretty
straight
forward, but haven’t been able to track it down.
I’m not seeing duplicates from other messages in [Gmail]/All Mail;
that
seems to be working as intended, for what it’s worth.
Thanks!
Caroline
