I checked the code and this is a bug triggered by the unexpected
argument to 'mailbox' above. I've fixed it.

It kind of matters with respect to the bug. First note the four types of
mailbox destinations described in a mostly unrelated part of the manual
(http://manual.mailmate-app.com/custom_key_bindings#special_actions).
I'll repeat them here for convenience:
1. The UUID of a smart mailbox (see ~/Library/Application
Support/Mailboxes.plist)
2. A standard mailbox name such as inbox, archive, drafts, sent, junk,
and trash.
3. A full path for a mailbox within an account such as
imap://you at imap.example.com/Special
4. A mailbox path without an account such as /Special.
The value you used is not covered by any of these options and MailMate
should just have failed to move the messages. Instead MailMate tried to
guess a mailbox which it shouldn't do in this case (the guessing is
related to the standard mailbox types for which there are no standard
server-side names).
You probably want to use '/Second' instead.
(Sorry about the lack of documentation. These 'rule'-files are still
experimental. I'm currently working on changing this as part of the
introduction of commands. It is not unlikely that this is also going to
change some of the syntax used.)
