Daniel showed me a neat little trick today that has GREATLY increased
the speed and performance of my Apple Mail program.
cd ~/Library/Mail
sqlite3 Envelope\ Index vacuum
This process optimizes the local database that Mail uses when
displaying folders, etc. EVERYTHING seems SO MUCH FASTER!
One response to “Speed Up Apple Mail”
Wow! You’re not kidding. I would add “First, quit Apple Mail.” to your instructions, though. I ran it with Apple Mail open and suddenly it went all strange on me. I restarted Apple Mail and now it’s perfect and blazing fast. In fact, it started up in less than one bounce. 🙂
Now, can you do anything about Microsoft Office?
