On some mailing lists I'm on (not MailMate..) there are entire threads which may arrive over the course of a few hours and I have no interest in them, or just a lot of messages in a row from a broken cron job. I'll go to the Unread smart-folder I've created, see the list of messages in that particular Sieve-sorted folder, command-a to select all messages, and hit delete.

Sometimes nothing happens. Sometimes one of the messages deletes...but I can't think of a time when they all actually seem to delete.

This is new to me. Do you think it is a recent problem (64 bit betas)?

However, if I first mark them all as read and THEN delete, it seems to take.

Since it's a Sieve-sorted folder. Is there any change that Sieve is putting the messages back in there when they are unread?

If you enable the “Msg ID” column in then messages outline then you can see if they are assigned new internal IDs in MailMate which would indicate that MailMate thinks of them as “new” messages.

Contrasted with Mail.app where if I select a range of messages or all messages in a folder, read or unread, and hit backspace/delete, they're gone...

Hmm, I guess that rules out the Sieve theory.

Something to look at, or is it Just Me?

I'd certainly like to know more. Let's start with the Msg ID suggested above and then we can debug off list since it appears no one else here is seeing the same thing (only a small group of people are using the 64 bit releases).
