Yes, I've hit this before (although not with Mail since I don't use it).
Indeed if you are patient enough, you can work thru a force quit. But you
do have to be REALLY patient. I freely admit that many times I'm not
willing to wait either and do a reboot instead.
Exactly. :)
Although also much of these times, I can get in from remote SSH and kill
the process via a remote command line. That tends to stay responding even
when the rest of the system has ground to a halt. (But there are times
that even that is too slow to want to deal with)
Thanks for the suggestion (and also someone else who recommended it before). I will try it out whenever I have the chance. Hopefully not too soon. :O
