Mail opens then immediately closes

I am able to open my mail, it then updates, and about 5 seconds later just closes and goes back to the home screen. I have tried powering off/on but it keeps doing this. Any suggestions for why this is happening and how to fix it?
Everything else is working just fine.
Thanks!

I'm suffering from this problem, but I'm not sure what you mean by this: "remove all of the folders under your inbox and move them to the top level mailbox. Do this in Outlook. See if the app still crashes after the move."

I have years of email organized into folders (Security policy won't let me make PSTs) are you saying I have to toss all that organization away in order to fix this issue? Or do I just delete the emails? Why doesn't it just work? Isn't that why we love apple?
