Need help with "Mail". Won't load and gives me no options, not even Quit.

Hmm... You're running Tiger?

Do a safe boot and then try the Envelope Index trick again.

If it launches normally, rebuild each of your mailboxes from the Mailbox menu.

No hacks installed, don't have a clue what else it might have been. After the Envelope temporary fix, I did try rebuilding the Mailbox and that didn't work either. I finally gave up and trashed the Mail .plist and just made a new account. Thanks to the Envelope Index trick, I was able to get all the account information and just re-entered it. It "seems" to be working right now, and it is importing the messages from the IMAP server. At least now I can open an email and see the window.

The only reason I use Mail for this is so I can get notifications when a new email arrives. I would just use the web portal, it is my work account, but I can't get a notification that way. Hopefully whatever was corrupted is fixed now and it will hold.

Thanks Doc, and decay.
