Many Cocoa apps print problems to STDOUT/STDERR, which if you launch
them through the GUI goes exactly nowhere. But if you launch them on the
command line sometimes you can better diagnose what is going on. For Mail.app
that would be:
/Applications/Mail.app/Contents/MacOS/Mail
It might not get you anything, but it is something else to try.
Alternately you can look in the logs: get the app to crash and then run:
syslog -k Time ge -2m
log show --last 2m
Those two will get you all of the logs for the last 2 minutes on your
system (the latter only is on Sierra), which might contain some clues.
Sometimes there is a lot of dross to sort through though.
