Apple Intelligence is now available on iPhone, iPad, and Mac!
Is anyone else having problems with mail in Catalina being really slow and sluggish? I am using it on a 6core 2013 Mac Pro with 32GB ram. IT is showing about 80% CPU utilization across all 6 cores. I am constantly closing and relaunching.

Same here....." downloading 3 messages or Moving 3 messages " after binning them and receiving new mail. I have to mostly then Force Quit Mail if I am shutting down. I'm running Catalina on a Mac mini i3 bought earlier this year. Actually went back to High Sierra after first downloading Catalina and have only just downloaded it again a week ago or so and now the upgrade a few days ago. Thought it was my ADSL+2 so tried my 4G Dongle to no avail.
Will be ringing Apple when I have a few spare hours.
Just an update on this. It seemed to only happen with Exchange mail. I deleted the accounts from my Mac and then readied them. Once I opened mail. I let it it and do it's think for a couple of hours and them everything has been working properly.
YES!!!.
Very frustrating. My brand new iMac which previously started up super fast now just gives me a color wheel spinning for way too long. All of my apps are slow especially larger CPU apps like ScreenFlow etc. Apple, please get this fixed.
This is what fixed it for me. The 11/4/19 update on this site:
