Speed Up MacOS X Mail.app

March 2nd, 2007 by Marcos

Wow, this tip really works. Probably more so on slower machines (like my iBook G4) than newer ones (like the Mac Pro in my office.)

Via Daring Fireball, it’s on the Hawk Wings web site. You use sql lite to do something to the Envelope Index file. There’s no period once you get into sql lite. The only suggestion I have is that there’s no period on the vacuum command of course, so once at the sqlite> prompt just type:

 vacuum subjects;

and then wait for a bit while it vacuums. Afterwards, Mail really is significantly snappier at loading folders.
