It is definitely high on the memory side. When I started this email, it was using 1.3GB of RAM. 5 minutes later it is sitting at 1.71GB. It shows that I have 30mb out of 8GB of RAM free. Also regularly sits at 50% CPU.
When I open the activity viewer in MM, I see no indication of throttling. The total # of messages in the archive folders is not increasing. Perhaps due to the large # of messages, it is reviewing all of them to make sure they are synced up and that is taking ages, maybe never finishing? Just a thought. I know nothing about how IMAP works. Activity monitors shows no throttling. I will send you the screen shot of what it shows. I ran the commands in terminal and it did not create any logs. I have restarted MM several time since then. THoughts? Thanks! kind regards, timothy wright 904-861-7996 On Wed, Nov 28, 2012 at 9:54 AM, Benny Kj?r Nielsen <mailinglist at freron.com>wrote: > On 28 Nov 2012, at 15:18, Timothy Wright wrote: > > I am a new user. >> Running a recent MBP on 10.8.2 >> > > Thanks for trying out MailMate.
