I am using Mail.app 1.3.3 and have
over 2000 emails registered in my
in-box but they seem Invisible -
When that in-box is hi-lighted nothing
shows up.

Anyone experience anything like this ?

Have you installed the latest security update? Did you repair permissions afterwards?

No, that's his second year (1981 Topps) card.

His RC is 1980 Topps #482.



Delete the "com.apple.mail.plist", not sure of which others you can delete. NOTE: This may delete your Mail account information, and you'll need to reset it back up...

b9 old buddy, thought you had kicked the bucket.



Good you're still on board.



Perhaps you are looking in the wrong place for you mail.

Everyday I kick that bucket a
little more it seems...

plist deletion does not seem to
do the trick - I am just going to
kick that bucket harder.

Cheers for the helpful and insightful
pix's plus suggestions.
