Q: mail app takes too long to load attachments

It is taking a very long time to load attachments regardless whether the size is big or small. Is there a way to fix this?

MacBook Pro with Retina display, OS X Yosemite (10.10.3), null

A:

1. If you've installed any third-party plugins for Mail, such as "SpamSieve," remove them according to the developer's instructions, then log out or restart the computer and test. Back up all data before making any changes.

2. In the Advanced settings for the mail account, uncheck the box marked

          Send large attachments with Mail Drop

if it's checked. If you have more than one account, repeat with each one. Relaunch Mail and test.
