[QUOTE="lvd76, post: 1294612, member: 190453"] [b]Resolved!!![/b] I went to a terminal window and checked the directory sizes on the hard drive. I noticed users folder said it was 390 GB. After digging down it was a corrupt mail folder on a different user account. I removed the mail account for that user, deleted the mail folder, and re added the account. Resolved! I'm not sure why I could not see the size of the folder in finder when I was logged in as a different user even when they were both admin accounts. Thanks for all the suggestions! [/QUOTE]
