[QUOTE="Sur3Mac, post: 1434666, member: 113359"] It involves optimizing the SQLite database Apple Mail uses to store indexes and subject lines of emails. You can check your current 'envelope archive' size by entering this in the terminal: [B]ls -lah ~/Library/Mail/Envelope\ Index[/B] Then to optimise it (cleans out stuff that has been marked for deletion but not actually deleted, defragments the structure, etc): [B]sqlite3 ~/Library/Mail/Envelope\ Index vacuum;[/B] Then check your envelope archive size again to see the results… [B]ls -lah ~/Library/Mail/Envelope\ Index[/B] In terms of size the decrease will not be huge, but you will probably notice a dramatic increase in speed. Hope this helps, Ibanezi [/QUOTE]
