Didn't help. As soon as the bad email got highlighted (and since it was the last one in the group, it did when I clicked into the Junk folder) the app hung with the hourglass. Since the bad boy was a bounced email, I'm thinking maybe it had some virus in it. I'll do a scan of the box later today but everything's working OK. I worked around it by marking one of my accounts as junk, and sent myself an email from that account. So that one was the one highlighted in the junk mail folder and I was able to retrieve the email I needed to save and clean out the rest.

There's a couple emails in there I'd like to see. I tried copying the junk mail folder to a temp folder but when I open the temp folder, same thing happens. The focus is on a bounced email in the junk folder and so I suspect that's causing the problem somehow. What to do? What to do?
