Description
I personally install all Mail plugins in the home directory at ~/Library/Mail/Bundles. It seems that other mail plugins also do that too. I think that, if there is no specific reason, AltPlugin should install itself there. Changing https://github.com/rileytestut/AltStore/blob/4f6e194b350e2993ae246247f160c0e2da2ac185/AltServer/AppDelegate.swift#L17 to start from FileManager.default.homeDirectoryForCurrentUser and appending path components would work.

Research direction
Start in AltServer/AppDelegate.swift at line 17, where the plugin installation path is selected. Read the surrounding installation code and verify that it builds the path from FileManager.default.homeDirectoryForCurrentUser, then confirm AltPlugin installs under ~/Library/Mail/Bundles.
