Hi guys

I am installing leopard onto a G5 at a friends house.

All has gone well except for Mail

When I launch Mail there is no window open. If I look at the message window there is no mail in the in the inbox and the sidebar folders are missing.

How can I get this sorted?

Edit extra information. Mail won't quit.

I have had this problem and the only way I managed to fix it was to re-install the operating system, unfortunately.

Not what you wanted to hear!

Peter.

I am back home now and the urgency has passed. I have found a couple of sites that consider this a known issue.

I will try out the suggestions tomorrow.

Ha! sorted.

I just had to delete the Mail pref file and all was well.
