Mail.app Mailbox problems

[David Boag]

This is a follow-up to a recurring problem with Mail. A couple weeks 
ago I asked about how to correct a problem of a mailbox "Writing 
changes to Disk" for minutes at a time, and repeatedly. I deleted the 
mailbox contents with "index" in the filename, and rebuilt the 
mailboxes (all of them, actually, not just the offender). The problem 
has resurfaced. Not only is it writing changes to disk in the activity 
window, but now it is doing it two times at the same time. The mailbox 
is my most important mailbox with over 3000 digests in it, and that may 
be part of the problem, although Entourage never did anything like this.

I'm thinking I might be forced to reinstall Mail.app, but since it 
installed with OS X, I'm not sure how. I have a hard time thinking it's 
the prefs, because it's only this mailbox.

Any guidance would be helpful at this point. Thanks.
