Ideally, MailMate should switch to Apple's Network framework, but
that requires macOS 10.14+ (MailMate is still 10.12+). Yes,
“maintaining” software often requires completely replacing
existing code because of system changes :)
Well, that's a lot of work :/
I'll see what I can do on my side.
If it is any help, there's really no concrete reason for mail systems to
disable TLS v1.1 or v1.2 if they limit the ciphers to strong ones and
are using a modern implementation (e.g. OpenSSL 3.x, LibreSSL 4, etc.)
of TLS. Disabling everything except 1.3 is nice on a security checklist
because it won't soon be obsolete and it's simple, but it is not
justifiable by any tangible risks.
