MailMate crashes and can't reopen

Reported by Ken Watkins | January 25th, 2016 @ 10:14 PM

I started using SpamSieve yesterday. It appeared to be working fine with MailMate until this afternoon, when MM crashed, generating this Problem Report: "MailMate quit unexpectedly. Click Reopen to open the application again."
Clicking Reopen only generates the same message. Can you help?

    I submitted this Terminal command:
    /Applications/MailMate.app/Contents/MacOS/MailMate

    and received the following message:

    It appears to be working now. Not sure what the issue was.
    I would hate to be without MailMate for any great amount of time. It's a workhorse!

    Do you use antivirus software? It's a known issue that it can cause problems similar to what you describe.

    This morning I've tried implementing a workaround where MailMate handles these types of errors more gracefully. It simply inserts a dummy message describing the issue. If the issue return then you can test it for me.
