Email issues (was Re: Big Sur crashes etc)
Hi Michael, What email app are you using? IMAP or POP3 accounts? How many accounts? If IMAP on Apple Mail, try rebuilding the indices to your Inbox(s). Do this by: Click the arrow to the left of Inbox so it shows the individual accounts. One at a time, right-click each of those account items selecting “Synchronize” from the pop-up menu. Then … wait … for Mail to coordinate with the mail server. Fwiw, last rebuild I did took about 20 mins for Mail to vomit the correct results. HTH, - Dan.

Re: Big Sur crashes etc
Hi Bill! FWIW, I’ve got a few friends on Big Sur that complain to me daily about system panics and such. Heck, I’ve got some of the same types of problems on my home Mini (Catalina). Please run Disk Utility on each disk volume/partition to make sure the file system is clean, then reset the nvram, and perhaps reduce the number of external devices and apps running all the time. If that doesn’t improve things: Provide a description of your environment… Stock iMac? RAM? Network setup? VPN? etc Maybe hit me off-list with a zipped system.log (be sure to tell me when the crash occurred). - Dan.

Re: Big Sur crashes etc
And I thot it was only y e-mail re-loading - constantly. As simply a user (and not a techie), it's a ;puzzle too me, too. Let's keep in touch, as we may yet be the only ones suffering this aggravation.
