Mail is Slow and lagging.

Since last update with MacOS Monterey, when I open Mail, everything is slow. (In the mail app) I get the color circle every 20-40 second. Spend hours with Apple tech. This is happening on my labtop and desktop. I used Google mail and Microsoft Exchange for work email. We have reinstalled the software and did numerous things with apple tech, and still, not fixed. Its only in mail, everything else on both computers are fast and working great. I have removed all my emails and it's still happening. Mail is extremely slow to response. HELP!

iMac Pro, macOS 12.3

Apple clearly has created a problem with Mail.

More and more people are reporting this issue, it is epidemic.


I have noticed another anomaly tied to this issue.


If I am focused on one email message and waiting for it to "appear" I can quit mail and instantly reopen mail and the message is there in full, graphics, everything. If I then scroll to the next message, it is blank. I repeat the process, close mail, reopen and viola there is the message in full.


This is insanity, what have they done?
