[QUOTE="Randy B. Singer, post: 1947946, member: 190607"] My educated guess is that you have an IMAP account, and that when you rebuild Mail's database, Mail downloads everything that is still on your mail provider's server. This is normal. To fix it for the future, set things to be deleted from the IMAP server after being read, or after a certian number of days after being read. [/QUOTE]
