Hi Jennifer, Yes, I went through this earlier this year and it was very painful. I have a whole evernote with all the steps but I can tell you for me this article got me going in the right direction: http://www.needhelp4mac.com/2015/10/troubleshooting-apple-mail-in-os-x-10-11-el-capitan/ <http://www.needhelp4mac.com/2015/10/troubleshooting-apple-mail-in-os-x-10-11-el-capitan/> Mac support was pretty useless with this and didn’t seem to want to acknowledge there was an issue. Hope this helps! derek - - - Tunnel 7 Design * Marketing * Optimization w: http://www.tunnel7.com <http://www.tunnel7.com/> p: 413.282.9957 Twitter: http://twitter.com/derekallard <http://twitter.com/derekallard> LinkedIn: http://linkedin.com/in/derekallard <http://linkedin.com/in/derekallard> Facebook: https://facebook.com/tunnel7 <https://facebook.com/tunnel7> > On Apr 6, 2016, at 11:41 AM, Jennifer Williams <jennifer at verilliance.com> wrote: > > > > > I believe this is my first missive to the Hidden Tech community! > > I recently upgraded my Mac OS X to 10.11.4 and as far as I can tell everything is working EXCEPT Mac Mail.
