Using defaults delete we can delete the entire domain, but since this is within the container we need to provide the full path. You should probably move this elsewhere if you wish to keep it. Using cp to copy the preferences file, a backup is created on your Desktop. Make a backup of the existing settings.Using AppleScript tell application … to quit we can automate this, and ignore if it fails (usually because Mail isn’t running) using the semicolon. Mac Mail has the bundle identifier so settings are stored in the plist with that name, within the sandbox container for that app. In macOS, preferences can be edited using the command line tool defaults. This creates a backup of the current settings on your Desktop then resets your Mail settings. I will give Mail one more try when we get the final release of Yosemite though, but I will probably stick with MailMate as well.Osascript -e 'tell application "Mail" to quit' 2> /dev/ null cp ~ /Library/Containers//Data/Library/Preferences/ ~ /Desktop & defaults delete ~/Library/Containers//Data/Library/Preferences/ & sleep 3 & open -a Mail Code language: JavaScript ( javascript ) The upside of all these hassles is that looking for a mail alternative i found MailMate (after having tried out several others), and after using it a day and a half, I can conclude that this is what Mail should have been like Like VMWare Fusion unable to launch, and FileMaker slowing down to snail pace, but I expected that at least Apples home grown apps were working. I know it's in beta, and was prepared for a lot of programs not working.
I've tried to zap all preference and cache files, and disabling the accounts one by one (and having them activated one at a time) with no success.
The only way to get my mails is to restart Mail most of the time by force quitting it. etc.īringing up the activity window just shows some fifteen to twenty blue progress bars, all at a 100% they stay there. When any of the accounts that are not icloud or gmail is active, Mail freezes in the process of collecting IMAP folders from the servers, updating deleted mails or sent mails etc. I'm having 10+ IMAP accounts on different hosts, apart from my icloud and gmail accounts.
