Subject: [MlMt] "Software Update Disabled"

I am trying to set up MailMate on macOS Catalina 10.15.3.
When I open MailMate, I get a message:
Software Update Disabled
MailMate is running on a read-only file system and
can therefore not be updated.
If you downloaded MailMate from the internet then
moving it out of the Downloads folder should solve
the problem.
I installed from MailMateBeta.tbz into the /Applications
folder. The permissions of that folder were initially:
drwxr-xr-x 3 root wheel 96 Oct 24 15:33 MailMate.app/
I changed the permissions to my personal account:
drwxr-xr-x 3 tbaker staff 96 Oct 24 15:33 MailMate.app/
But I still get the message.
I suppose I could just check the box for "Do not show
this message again", but I'd like to understand what
folder MailMate thinks is read-only (and whether this
could cause trouble in other ways).
Many thanks,
Tom

I find that date-received is more reliable than just date. I think
because it comes from MM.

Hi, In Catalina, the root filesystem is actually read-only, and MacOS
performs some interesting tricks to make that work while allowing
third
party SW to be installed, making it generally completely invisible to
users. So perhaps you somehow copied MailMate into this read-only
partition?
To see the "writeable" /Applications folder, look at
/System/Volumes/Data/Applications/ in Terminal. If MailMate is not in
there, then you need to move it there. If it is there, make sure
there
are no other copies anywhere. If it still fails, this could be a bug
in
the Beta version of MailMate.
Hope this helps.

It was already /System/Volumes/Data/Applications/ (with the 'tbaker
staff' permissions as below).
If it is there, make sure
there are no other copies anywhere.
A Spotlight search turns up just that one.
If it still fails, this could
be a bug in the Beta version of MailMate.
Should I open an issue?
Hope this helps.
I learned something (re: Catalina), but I guess the problem
remains. In the meantime, I guess I could just click on
"Do not show this message again."...
Many thanks,
Tom

Does Mailmate have ‘full disk access’ in your Privacy settings?

I just enabled full disk access for MailMate but still get
the message on startup.
