Hi bette39,

Have you tried to restart your Mac?

Shut down or restart your Mac - Apple Support?

If the issue persists after a restart, see if it persists while in Safe Mode.

How to use safe mode on your Mac - Apple Support

If the slow downloading issue is still showing, temporarily remove your Mail account (Remove email accounts in Mail on Mac - Apple Support), then re-add it: Add an email account to Mail on your Mac - Apple Support.

Do any other internet services seem slow, such as using Safari to visit websites?

Cheers,

Jack
