Can't open Mail preferences
Mail's preferences simply won't open!! Tried cmd-, shortcut and Mail menu command. Either way I get the normal blue flash over "Mail" in the menubar .. and then nothing. I've tried relaunching the app several times, repaired permissions, returned to the computer after an overnight shutdown, tried replacing the prefs file (com.apple.mail.plist) with several backup copies spread over the past 6 weeks ... No go.
From scouring the forum there seem to have been instances of this behaviour bugging quite a few people several years ago under Tiger. Never happened to me then, but happening now under SL.
Anyone else seen this and/or have any suggestions? Thanks.
P.S. been a while since I ran DiskWarrior, so might just try that .. but not hopeful it will fix this.
