In our 27" iMac running OS 11.6 (Big Sur) the Mail app (14.0) is using over 500 GB of storage! I don''t understand how this is possible.
When I look in the Mail library it looks like "Gmail drafts" is using 719 GB of the storage.
Does anyone have an idea about what I can do to reclaim this hard drive storage?
many thanks for the collective wisdom of this community

Just for accuracy purposes - Memory is Random Access Memory ( RAM ) and Disk Space is what is occupying space on the drive.
