    macOS Big Sur Mail app continuously downloads messages repeatedly

    Mail App - view attachments as icons?

    Is there any way I can setup the mail app or the Big Sur OS itself, so that the attachments, be that photo, or a pdf containing a photo remains as a thumbnail? I can't seem to figure out a way to do this. This is how it looks now.

    Does Apple Mail's 'Move to Junk' tell the Mail Server the mail is Spam?

    Does Apple Mail's 'Move to Junk' tell the Mail Server the mail is Spam? My email is hosted with Fastmail, which uses machine learning to train the server as to what I think is spam in addition to any built-in spam filters. In their email Web GUI, I have a "mark as spam" button the moves...

    Securing Mail App on Mac

    Is there a way to set up two factor authentication (2FA) for the Mail App itself? I know Apple is not the email provider and the app is only used to access emails from AOL Mail, Outlook, etc. rather than going to those websites directly, but is there a way to set up Mail so that when it is...

    Creating reminders from Apple Mail

    Am trying to create reminders from Apple Mail on Big Sur. Used to be you could invoke the share sheet to do this. That does not look like it works anymore. Would prefer not to have to use AppleScript or Automator to do this, but there may be no other way. Anyone have workarounds? Thanks!

    iOS 14 default mail and browser still revert to Apple after app updates...

    I know the reboot issue was fixed, but this is arguably even worse. Are there any plans to fix this? Is it something that even can be fixed, and would it be Apple or the devs that had the power to do so? Basically defeats the purpose of having defaults if you have to remember to set them after...
