Mail Issue

When I click on the mail app icon on my mac it opens a window Mail Upgrade and doesn't do anything after that. So I am unable to send or receive mail. How do I troubleshoot this issue?

MacBook Air 13″, macOS 10.15

What is this... window Mail Upgrade ???


Safe Boot, (holding Shift key down at startup), does the problem occur in Safe Mode?


Safe mode attempts to repair Disks & clears lots of caches & loads safe Drivers, & prevents loading of 3rd party extensions, so if Safe Mode works try again in regular boot.


I think we might figure it out if you can submit an etrecheck report...

Pastebin is a good place to paste the whole report if you capture the URL while there…

Whew, they've changed pastebin & made it harder, but after pasting in, click Create new paste button, then Embed button, then copy the URL...

Workable but harder for me to work with...the Note tool on the bottom of this editor's toolbar, as shown in the image, to copy and paste the output from EtreCheck. In a Reply before you click post, look for this to add longer texts...
