![]() ![]() Currently, the SpamSieve beta is not compatible with the macOS 10.14 Mojave developer beta. To prevent macOS from updating itself without asking you, go to the App Store section of System Preferences and make sure that Install macOS updates is unchecked. I figure I’ll have to restart Mail by Friday, when the new message count should be well into the 1000s. It’s best to update SpamSieve before updating macOS. Time Memory Private Memory “New Messages” count in Downloading message Watching more closely for a bit, I see that while the memory use trends steadily upward, it’s more of a sawtooth pattern.Īs for memory consumption, here is a brief log for the past 18 hours or so: ![]() I erred in saying “monotonically increasing”. TL DR - Real Private Memory increases along with total memory. Typically, though, I restart Mail prophylactically at about 750MB and all is good. Sometimes the entire machine is affected (requiring a reboot). ![]() What I’ve seen in the past is that when Mail’s memory use approaches 1GB, Mail becomes unstable in various ways. This becomes a maintenance consideration, and I travel quite a bit (often off the grid), making regular maintenance restarts tricky.ĭo you see any particular bad effects when it gets to 1 GB? Does the Real Private Memory (you may need to tell it to show that column) also increase like that? Frankly, I wouldn’t much care except for the apparent memory-leak issue. Mail and SpamSieve are operating as expected EXCEPT for the persistent “downloading messages” message.Īny additional thoughts / suggestions much appreciated. Re-started Mail (went fine) then re-added that account (went fine). The rebuild went fine after I deleted what turned out to be a problematic account (it’s “Spam” folder was apparently a mess, causing Mail to think that there were ~450,000 messages in there - there weren’t). No change to the “downloading messages” behavior. Okay, I sucked it up and re-built Mail’s databases from scratch. If the rebuild succeeds, you could then re-import them later. Another idea would be to export some of the mailboxes and then delete them from Mail, so that there’s less to rebuild. ![]()
