I started with DP1, updated to DP2 and then DP3. In all 3 versions, Apple Mail is completely broken and I can't add any accounts (I'm trying to add Gmail).

Clicking File > Accounts, the Accounts is blanked out and can't be clicked. Going into System Preferences > Internet Accounts, I've got Gmail/Google added already but the checkbox for Mail is again blanked out, and I can only sync calendars, address book etc.

Anyone else have this problem??

Yup. Known issue in DP1 at the very least. Didn't think to check DP2 and haven't looked at the known DP3 issues.

I haven't had this issue with any of the DP builds, and I have two Gmail and one me.com account set up in Mai. I just rechecked, and I can access both File>Accounts and System Preferences>Internet Accounts. I can also go to File>Preferences>Accounts Tab and add accounts from there as well.

Thanks for the replies. Seems like some have it, some don't.

Hopefully it will work for me by the time the GM is released :p

In the meantime, there's Airmail...
