Hi Mac folks-
I have experienced glitches with Mail application ever since I have owned my Powerbook G4 (12") (OSX 10.4.6) Mail (2.0.7) (since 11/2005). I have not whined about it until now since I have mainly been using another mail application.
I have an Imap account and a recently defunct .mac account (trial-membership) on Mail.
Glitches come in various flavors including: total freeze or a freeze (with "spinning dials" indicating system working), all folders go empty (though items return when I go offline), mails do not get sent or do get sent but in multiple copies (like 5 or 6), or they get stuck in Outbox, a long delay in sending mails even of only a few sentences. Sometimes in telling the status of an email item there is a discrepancy in information while on-line and then when off-line. Sometimes Mail crashes unexpectedly.
It's all very erratic.
Anyone heard of or have experienced these symptoms?? Anyone know of Mail bug/patch issues with these versions of OSX and Mail? Or could source of the symptoms be how my accounts are set up? (I did "CMND + I" on my Imap account inbox but it did not retrieve any info, the system just kept spinning as if retrieving info, but never did. Yet another problem.
Advice/Suggestions/Solutions would be appreciated!
