I’m confused. I thought that MM didn’t have local copies of the messages.
MailMate has a local cache (copy) of emails, but the primary location of emails is on the IMAP server(s). The cache enables MailMate to do almost anything while offline. Any changes are then synchronized with the server(s) when going online.
MailMate does not have local mailboxes (like “On My Mac” in Apple Mail). In other words, you cannot move an email from an IMAP account to some local-only mailbox within MailMate.
I’ve asked for a feature to download messages from the server for local storage but was told it’s not possible.
If you don't need the emails in a mailbox within MailMate then you can still copy the emails to local disk folders and then delete them in MailMate. These emails are still viewable (and searchable using Spotlight).
