In general, I agree, but it’s not obvious to me that Fastmail’s labels and mailboxes--let alone MailMate tags--work much better in MailMate than Gmail’s. I’m sure this is one of those issues that seems, to a non-coder like me, like it should be simple but isn’t. (It’s also unclear to me whether Fastmail’s JMAP implementation has any effect on this.) I have taken to using the “Move to Mailbox” (⌥⌘T) command rather than tagging messages and trying to map MailMate tags to Fastmail labels.

If any experienced Fastmail users have better ideas, I’d love to hear them. Thank you.

You may want to consider changing your paradigm a bit and instead of using physical mailboxes for groups like friends and lists, you use smart mailboxes. You may find that this gives you even more flexibility and control over your mail streams. I am talking from experience of using POP with Eudora for many many many years and switching to IMAP and MailMate a few years ago.
