i have a 13" MBP running 10.6.2 and for some reason i randomly get Mail bringing in like 3,400 messages and i have not been able to figure our why.
i have the following Mail accounts:
1. work - this is pop and i know it can not be this account causing it as i only leave 1 day on server so there is not that many in there
2. .Mac - (mobile me) however i only have 2,784 messages in it so the numbers dont match up
3. gmail - this account only has 26 messages since i only use it for GV and syncing an Android phone
it does this very quickly for supposedly bring in that many messages and when it finished nothing has changed and i notice nothing new in my Mail accounts?
any thoughts on why this would happen?
thanks
