Mac Mail app won't launch

I just transferred from a 2019 macbook pro to the M1 16 inch MBP. Neither Mail nor Safari will launch. The icon will bounce about 10 times then ... nothing. The app is in the applications folder. I checked the Library folder, and my mail data is there, but I have no way to get to if since Mail doesn't launch.


Any advice is appreciated.

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


Safe mode attempts to repair Disks & clears lots of caches, so if Safe Mode works try again in regular boot.


If still no good Disconnect from the Internet, then start Mail.


Does Mail crash if no internet?


Quit Mail & login to your WebMail in a Browser, Does that work?
