How can I stop Mail from opening?
It opens itself automatically, slowing down my system and eats away at my hard drive space. Worse still it fills it with sensitive data thats now oh so easy to access. I can't stand Mail.
Thanks
All helpful tips very much appreciated 🙂
MacBook Pro, Mac OS X (10.7.3)
Go into your login items, System Preferences->Users & Groups; Login items, and remove Mail
Thanks. I tried your suggestion but Mail is not under Login Items 😕 ....any ideas?
Really, strange that is the default for user accounts and is how mail is started when you log in. You did look at your account, correct?
What is listed under login items?
I don;t beleive it was any different under Lion, your OS according to your profile.
Sorry have nothing else.
I haven't used this before today there was some "junk" in there which word docs etc. I didn't see Mail. Current Login Items:
Thanks for posting the picture 🙂 I'm thinking the a problem might not be at the login stage as Maill sometimes it appears on the dock long after login.
In regard to stopping the flow of incominng messages into Mail from my Gmail account. Would you know how to do this? Thank you
