I forgot to mention, I fixed permissions both in Disk Utility and with Cocktail on Sunday. But good thought on the Spam emails. I'll go into my Deleted Emails folder and trash every spam email in there (I use Entourage X for business, so I keep three months of deleted emails, which amounts to about 3000 or so.) I'll let y'all know if that does it.
