I back you up. Only thing to add is that one should make sure that

is always enabled such that a password is never sent to the IMAP/SMTP

allow non-SSL connections.
Is there a Privacy Policy shown during the installation by chance?
No. Installation is just dragging MailMate to, e.g., the Applications
folder.
MailMate is a Desktop application and most of its network activity is
between you and your IMAP/SMTP providers. MailMate only talks to my
server when doing application update checks, when updating bundles (a
plugin-system for MailMate) and when sending crash reports (if enabled
in the General preferences pane).
If you get a license key then I also have access to some personal
information via FastSpring (my reseller). Earlier on I got an email with
this information for every purchase, but this is no longer the case.
This means that I only store the name and email address of each license
key owner (everything else is handled by FastSpring). I do *not* have
(and never had) access to credit card information.
That's all the relevant information I can think of for now. Let me know
if you have any concerns or you can point to an example of a privacy
policy which you would prefer instead of the above.
MailMate is developed by Freron Software which is a small one-man (me)
business located in Copenhagen, Denmark (in the EU).
