Mail problem 2

[lostinforums]

Hi,

mail has constantly been crashing/hanging lately. It works fine, sometimes for up to an hour, sometimes 20mins, but then i get the spinning beach ball and i have to force quit it.

Any ideas what can solve this?

I tried moving com.apple... to the trash and restarting but it didn't seem to fix it.

mbp 2011
10.12

thanks

Too many factors to consider for an off the cuff suggestion.

Download and run Etrecheck and post the results here. It will provide an overview of your system.

Etrecheck will give the info, but in the future be more specific. You should be v 10.12.6.
Include info on what type of account(s)? (POP, IMAP, Exchange) What Email Provider? Comcast, Earthlink, Cox, ATT, Yahoo, iCloud, Gmail, AOL, Hotmail (other)

I have a personal Mac Mini and I shortly after I upgraded to High Sierra I started getting Mail.app crashes. It is now five weeks or more and my mail handling is completely disrupted. Last week I upgraded my work 2016 MacBook Pro, and shortly after Mail started crashing on that machine, albeit somewhat differently. Right now the only commonalty is a single Office365 account. I tried using Outlook and I loathe it.
