Ok, so, literally out of no where... my Mail program (default apple mail)) has gotten effed up... no sure how... i didn't install anything or change settings.

First off, I don't seem to get all my mail...

Second off, I randomly hear the "new mail" sound, yet there is no new mail

Third off, if I click 'get mail ', instead of the "no mail" sound, I heard the "new mail" sound, yet no mail is there.


Any ideas?.....

=(

Is there a way to reinstall the mail or something or figure out what went wrong?
 
If you create a new user account in System Preferences, does it work normally from there? If it does then we can almost certainly narrow down your problem to a corruption in your Home folder. :)
 
Let me clarify... I still get some of my mail... just not all..

I have noticed a slight decrease in the amount o f mail i receive, and to top it off, when I posted a craigslist ad today, i didn't get a notification (which I have always gotten before).

Any more ideas? =\
