Mail Keeps Quitting On Mac
![Mail App Quits Unexpectedly Mac Mail App Quits Unexpectedly Mac](/uploads/1/2/6/4/126469808/512934091.png)
My Apple 'MAIL' app. unexpectedly quits each time I open it.
It will begin to load my mail, show the mailboxes and new e-mails and then all of a sudden quit.
I searched some of the Apple support and forums and have tried these things:
1. I trashed the 'com.apple.mail.plist' preference file in the pref. folder.
2. I did an archieve install with Tiger OSX on my entire System Folder.
3. I erased my user>library>'mail folder'
4. I tried holding the shift key upon opening the program as suggested here but to no avail: http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=479497&tstart=0
This has not resolved the problem. The program still quits every time I open it.
Pleeeeease help!!!!!!!!!
