[QUOTE="Chris H., post: 1104012, member: 124706"] The guy that reinstalled it probably didn't do a very good job. That's the first thing that comes to mind. Are you sure that you are using Leopard though? You've gone to the Apple menu and selected "About This Mac"? Regardless... So what you'll need to do is get a Leopard disc- or even better- a Snow Leopard disc (trust me, SL runs better than Leopard), and reinstall the entire operating system. Also, are you using Time Machine? I suggest backing up all your data through Time Machine before you reinstall any Mac OS X version on your computer. The reason why I'm suggesting reinstalling the OS is because Mail is on the install disc- and you'll need a retail copy (black). Since you can't access Mail.app on your computer (because the guy probably reinstalled the OS and didn't install applications- something has gone wrong), this is the way to go- unless someone here says different (which might occur). You might also have access errors on the hard drive. Have you performed a Repair Disk Permissions? Or even verified the hard drive? Applications>Utilities>Disk Utility [/QUOTE]
