    Apple Mail Mailboxes On My Mac Versus iCloud

    I have a question about the mailboxes I've created in Apple Mail. I create mailboxes to organize messages I want to keep. I've always just had them "On My Mac" instead of putting them in iCloud. I'm curious to hear what others do, as I'm wondering if I'd be better off putting all of these...

    Mail not showing since updating to 15.5

    Since updating to 15.5 I've stopped getting notifications for my emails in the mail app. No tone or even an unread number by the app. When I open the app they are all there though. Anyone had anything similar?
