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.
