That's a bit unusual, but read on below.
I have his account set to synchronize manually, but it still seems to
snag them. Is it because I occasionally click on my general 'inbox'
folder?
Yes, manually just means that MailMate won't fetch emails unless you
somehow interact with the mailbox (selecting it, moving emails to it,
etc.).
How can I fix it such that it won't receive?
You can take the INBOX of the account specifically offline using
“Mailbox ▸ Take Offline”. Or you can take the entire account
offline, but then your sent emails won't be uploaded to the “Sent
Messages” mailbox of the account.
But note that it can be a bit hard to see what's going on if some
mailboxes are offline, e.g., if you move something from/to an offline
mailbox within the account then MailMate cannot synchronize this move
with the server, but it'll still look like it was moved in MailMate.
Another solution is to unsubscribe from everything except the "Sent"
mailbox.
MM supports a client-side subscription list so you don't interfere with
what the server says is subscribed. Edit IMAP Account->Edit
Subscriptions... Check "Ignore server subscription state for private
namespaces" and uncheck everything in the "Client" column that you don't
ever want to see.
