I'm currently running MailMate version 2.0BETA (6092), 29-Sep-2017,
under OS 10.9.5.
My guess is that you are the only one using that release :) It's a
confusing one of historical origin (and Intel only). A long time ago, I
had two branches of MailMate in order to prepare for a major release
with new features (to be able to require an upgrade fee). That was
dropped and integrated into the 1.x releases, and I felt it was safe to
re-use the 2.0 Beta designation for the latest update. I forgot, but I
also intended to bump the revision number to r6100 to avoid confusion
with old 2.0BETA releases (which used revision numbers in the r6000+
range). I'll do that for the next update. Everyone else should just
ignore the above. It's relevant to at most a handful of people.
My license key was issued on 2-Jan-2014. I will soon be building
another system, on OS 10.12 or 10.13, for which the new rules will be
fine, but what happens to MailMate on my existing 10.9 system, which I
want to keep no matter what..?
The new pricing/license model does not affect any earlier releases of
MailMate. Important old releases are always available here:
https://updates.mailmate-app.com/archives/
It's easier to see a list of old releases for earlier versions of macOS
here: https://freron.com/download/
Similarly, what if I wanted to use an older build of Mailmate on the
new system?
You can always use older releases of MailMate with any license key for
MailMate.
* The difference between “Paid Mode” and “Free Mode” is
minimal. The end of paid mode does not mean the end of using
MailMate.
May I ask, what exactly is the difference? I'm asking because, while
I want you to enjoy a long and happy life, what happens in the rare
event that you don't?
The difference is described here: https://freron.com/pricing
