I upgraded to El Capitan from Mt. Lion after a bad experience with Yosemite (my machine ran super slow) and I time machined back to Mt. Lion. El Capitan runs fine except for an odd thing with mail.
It all seems fine except after a short time and I've looked at my messages the list is still there but when I open the message all I see is the header and subject, no body to the message. If I click on each separate message it opens in a full new window, but still no text. I have to close mail and reopen it and then I see the text until it disappears again after a while, not set time that I can see.
What can I do to stop this annoying activity?
My machine is a MacBook Air, 13", late 2010, 1.86 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo, 2 GB 1067 MHz DDR3, NVIDIA GeForce 320M 256MB.
Additional note: Somehow last night I was able to get Apple Support by phone without charging me for it. The woman was very helpful. I was told to force quit mail, then reopen it holding down the option and command keys. Since then it has been acting normally. If I experience this kind of problem again I'll repeat that action even though it would be indicative of a deeper problem that wasn't permanently resolved.
