Ho there: Douglaseye here. I am runnning OS 10.4.5 on a titanium Powerbook and this morn my Mail program started acting up. I'd launch, the INBOX would come up and then immediately the program would crash with a complicated report I didn't understand. I zapped the PRAM, restarted to no avail. In looking at this site, I found this advice below for someone else's Mail problem, followed it and the program now opens. However, all my old sub-mailboxes and contents are no longer viewable and gettable. Are they gone forever? I needed some of that stuff:
HERE'S THE INFO I FOLLOWED:
Hi Jackie Try the following:
Close the Mail.app first and using the Finder, go to Home > Library > Mail. Move the Mail folder to the Desktop.
Launch Mail and the Mail.app will create an entirely new Mail folder and account named folders within at Home > Library > Mail. The account mailboxes will be empty and any user created mailboxes will not be available but this will allow for the Mail.app to function properly.
