Hi Tim, That’s a great suggestion. I am one of these individuals who immediately closes down an app when I am finished using it. I think I will stop doing that with Mail. I don’t mind an occasional hang, it’s just that right now, it’s been happening more often than the mail app closing properly. Thus, the annoyance.

When you attempt to quit too quickly after these sorts of tasks, Mail may be in the middle of polling for new messages, cleaning up mailboxes etc. So, go press cmd-tab and go to another app and do something, or just wait about 10 seconds or so before pressing cmd-q to quit Mail. See if you have better luck.

I’d say it happens at least once a week. And les is right, it is annoying, and does seem like something that apple should have fixed ages ago. Just my $.02. :) Cheers, Donna On Jun 8, 2021, at 9:40 AM, 'Tim Kilburn' via MacVisionaries <macvisionaries@googlegroups.com <mailto:macvisionaries@googlegroups.com> > wrote: Hi, Yes, this does happen occasionally. I had a possible reason for it a few years ago, but I can’t recall what I had come up with. In any case, 9 times out of 10 it will eventually quit itself. No need to force quit. It’s not hurting anything.

I have no idea what causes it or how to solve it, but I can tell you that turning VO off, waiting a couple seconds and then turning VO back on usually allows Mail to close. Sorry I don’t have a better solution, but at least this is better than nothing.

I do have one problem which is annoying the daylights out of me. More often than not, when I quit the Mac App with Command-Q, it hangs. It will close eventually, but this does not seem to be normal behavior. I have done a Force Quit initiated with Command Option Escape, but that does not resolve this issue. Any ideas as to what I can do to get Mail to behave as it should? Best, Les -- The following information is important for all members of the Mac Visionaries list.
