Crashing like a Champ

   19 September 2007, early morning

Mail.app crashes like a champ when accessing my IMAP mail on Dreamhost. I don’t recall when it started doing this, but it does it consistently. My work around thus far is to load up Mutt on the Funkaoshi server, purge deleted mail there, and then load up Mail.app. This seems to fix things. Why Mail.app chokes I have yet to investigate. The lack of any good email clients for the Mac is perplexing. I’m surprised some indie-developer hasn’t tried their hand at one. There must be open-source email libraries one could start off with. Maybe I should try using Mulberry again. GyazMail looks interesting.

Don't be shy, you can comment too!

 
Some things to keep in mind: You can style comments using Textile. In particular, *text* will get turned into text and _text_ will get turned into text. You can post a link using the command "linktext":link, so something like "google":http://www.google.com will get turned in to google. I may erase off-topic comments, or edit poorly formatted comments; I do this very rarely.
