Hi, Every time I try to open Apple Mail, it crashes. My wild guess is that the issue is related to a corrupted file.
I had been copying mailboxes from the "On My Mac" section to a new folder in the Inbox section. The copying was going fine for a while and then stopped part way through one of the mailboxes. At some point, I forced Apple Mail to quit because it was stuck. Now when I try to open Apple Mail, it begins the start up process and then shows a panel that says "Ignore" or "Report" or "Reopen". If I click "Ignore" and then try again, I get the same panel. If I click "Report" and send information to Apple, the Mail app remains closed. If I click "Reopen", then I get the same panel. So, no choice allows me to open Apple Mail. When it begins the start up process, I can see the Mail window for a second (before Mail quits) and the "problem" mailbox is highlighted. I tried logging out and rebooting, but neither helped. I tried removing the 4 mail .plist files in my Library/Mail/Preferences folder, but that did not help. I even deleted the mailbox that I think may be the culprit, but that did not help. Is there a file I can delete so that Apple Mail does not "remember" to start by opening that mailbox, and instead points to some default like the Inbox? Does anyone have any other suggestions? Thanks in advance for any help. Gregg _______________________________________________ MacOSX-talk mailing list MacOSX-talk@omnigroup.com http://www.omnigroup.com/mailman/listinfo/macosx-talk
