Thanks for this Ronni. Is there any benefit in archiving (ie Trashing)
old sent items in reducing burden on Mail for the benefit of speed
improvement?
Regards
Peter.

 Hi Robert,
  1. Quit Mail 
 2. In the Finder, select Go, then Go to Folder. Paste this in the
box:      ~/Library/Mail/V2/MailData/ 
 3.This is in your Home Library.      Look for these Envelope Index
files and move them to the Trash.  
     ENVELOPE INDEX      ENVELOPE INDEX-SHM     ENVELOPE
INDEX-WAL 
 4. Restart Mail  This will reindex your messages. The reindexing
process can take a while, depending on how much mail is stored on
the computer.  Be prepared for a lengthy re-indexation if you have
tons (thousands+) of messages in Mail app. 
 See if that helps. 
   Cheers, Ronni

Mail in 10.9.4 has become "Sticky"It is slow to respond when selected
and is also the same when selecting mailboxes and opening mail items.
Is there a fix?
