End of report

I'm a rookie when it comes to computer problems. I did notice though that my RAM was very low. It shows I have 636 MB free. Used 4.28 GB Cached files: 3.10GB. Then it says Available RAM: 3.72 GB. Could that be my problem with my email, not enough RAM to bring it in faster? Why do I only have 636 MB free RAM?

Actually, I didn't see an Additional Text button, that's why I ended up sending it in smaller chunks. I guess it came over ok. That stuff is all Greek to me. I did figure out how to Uninstall "CleanMy Mac". When I had a Tech out to my house, he saw that in my file and said it was safe, so he added it to my tool bar. That was a problem I had for years with Windows, when I downloaded a program I wanted, they would sneak in a virus or something. I try not to download anything on my Mac unless it comes from Apple. I use my Mac for check what's happening in the world, Stock Market, Email and search for where to buy something. I also have FCPX for my editing movies. I have 2 external hard drives added to my system for saving my videos in. One is 1TB and one is 2 TB. There's still a lot of space on both, plus over 600GB on the Mac hard drive. This Mac has been sufficient enough for me, but if i ever get another Mac, it will have more hard drive and RAM. I used Windows for over 20 years. This is the first Mac I've had and I'm still learning after 6 years. After Uninstalling "CleanMyMac" I found several folders in the "Download" section, so I moved them to trash. I hope that was right. I'll run Etrecheck again sometime next week. Thanks for your help.

You're the first person I heard say they use Eudora. I thought I was the only one. I use to live in the foothills above Sacramento and got the Internet from a company in Grass Valley, CA. They were the ones that set me up with Eudora. The only problem was, I had to download the program every time I go a new computer and one at a time reinstall my contacts. I got my Mac about 6 years ago and Apple setup my email so I still have my same email address I've had for over 20 years. I also use the program "Magic Mail" that I can use on any computer that connects me to the Grass Valley server so I can get my email that way when my Apple acts up like it is now. You say MacOS Ventura will fix this email problem when it comes out? Is Ventura newer that Monterey? There was a good tip from "Old Toad that I tried. I hope it works. I'll know more next week. I hope this Ventura comes out soon.

I still have Eudora on all my Windows computers. Not sure how Apple set up my Man 6 years ago, but I use the same email address from Grass Valley, CA. I assume you worked for Qualcomm by Sacramento? I worked for Coherent Laser Co. in Auburn, just up the hill from Sac. for 10 years then opened my own Awards business in my shop at home.

Hi Kerk, for me, this has been going on since the 12.4 upgrade. That does work sometimes, by hitting rely, but if there's an attachment, it can't open. This has been going on for months now. I'm surprise Apple hasn't got feed back by now and fixed it.

Hi Old Toad, yes, this has been done. I've had a Tech to my house and took it to an Apple repair shop. No one seems to know what has caused this problem. I still say it's do to Apples 12.4 upgrade to macOS Monterey. Apple should be aware of this problem by now, since there are dozens of others that have the same problem. They need to fix this.

Yes, I installed it the first day it came out hoping it would solve the problem, but it didn't. This problem started right after I installed Monterey 12.4. Seems to me with all these Apple experts out there and the number of complaints, someone or Apple would have an answer. This is really getting frustrating. I hope I don't have to go back to Windows.

I noticed this problem several months ago, where my emails take forever to open so I can read them. This started with Monterey 12.4 and still shows the same problem with 12.5. Looks like a lot of folks are having the same problem and some cures suggested by Apple, is to buy anew computer. If this is the kind of service Apple is going to provide, saying to buy a new computer, if I do, it will be Windows. If it ain't broke, don't fix it.
