Apple Event: May 7th at 7 am PT
I would like to remove mail accounts on my Mac. I press"-" and account is gone, however as soon as I start mail again it shows back. Is there a way to remove it so it wouldn't come back?
Thank you.
iMac, Mac OS X (10.7.3)
From the Finder menu bar, select Go ▹ Go to Folder... and enter
~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.mail.plist
in the text box that opens. A Finder window will open with a file selected. Press the key combination command-I to open the Info window. In the Sharing & Permissions section of that window, do you have read & write access? Is the file locked? What is its modification date?
Thank you for the suggestion. I did as you said. I have the permission. The file was locked so I unlocked it. Removed mail accounts... As soon as I started mail they all came back.
Are you synchronizing with MobileMe or iCloud? If so, disable that and try again.
How to delete/remove mail accounts. After I restart mail they all come back.
