OP here: http://forums.macresource.com/read.php?1...msg-765675
... I still haven't fixed this problem, no matter what I've tried (mailbox rebuild, repairing permissions, etc.), but I just discovered something else weird:
When I try to write this sender an email (but NOT as a reply to one of hers), I start to type her first name, and a few choices come up. Two of the choices are the same email address, but one of them is enclosed in quotes and the other not. That is, "Jane Q. Public" and Jane Q. Public . If I try to select the first one, but NOT the second one, I cannot actually select it, and cannot therefore write the email. If I select the second one, I'm OK.
(She wrote to tell me, no, she is not using any weird graphics in her emails, and no, she isn't using any odd fonts-- in fact, she told me she is using our institution's webmail...)
I'm guessing that it is something corrupt in Mail's sender/recipient list or something? Is there a pref file that I should particularly be thinking to trash?
What do you guys make of this? TiA
