Huh, it wasn't even showing there. So I went into my Gmail labels again 
and turned on Show in IMAP for it, and now it is subscribed to in 
Mailmate's Edit Subscriptions, and I haven't seen the error pop up in a 
couple of hours. If it does appear again -- it always seemed to pop up 
at random -- I'll try unsubscribing from it in Mailmate while leaving 
Show in IMAP on in Gmail... Thanks for the suggestion!

I’ve sometimes had luck getting mailboxes unstuck by unsubscribing, 
taking MlMt offline, back online, refreshing the IMAP folder list, etc.


Not sure if it’ll work in your case but it’s another knob to fiddle 
with.

with options of "retry", "take account offline," and "try again

I tried going back to my Gmail "manage labels" page on the Web at 
mail.google.com and deleting the "[Gmail]/Sent Mail" label (which 
never has any messages in it anyway), but that doesn't stop the error 
message from appearing, and when I check, the label has reappeared in 
Gmail's Web access.


When I look at the [Gmail]/Sent Mail mailbox for this account in 
MailMate, it's greyed out and marked "(failed)", and MailMate reports 
about 600 messages in it, even though Gmail looked at through Web 
access says the label has 0 messages.


My other Gmail account also has a "[Gmail]/Sent Mail" mailbox in 
MailMate, but it's greyed out and marked "(offline)". I tried taking 
the "[Gmail]/Sent Mail" mailbox that's throwing an error offline as 
well, and the attempt failed with the same "mailbox unexpectedly 
already exists" error.


The mailing list archive includes a message from Sherman Wilcox this 
past March who had the same problem, and Benny said "this was solved 
off list. It was related to the Archive mailbox somehow having become 
unsubscribed (client side) and MailMate did not handle this well." 
But MailMate's Archive mailbox for this account seems fine -- I don't 
use it and there's nothing in it, but it's not greyed out or offline 
or anything.


Can anyone advise? I promise I'll never try to tidy up Gmail again...
