individual emails load slow iMac monterey 12.6.3

Frequently when clicking to open an email nothing happens. Intermittently they will open. I do not have this problem with my iPhone 2022 SE or older iPad. Any recommendations.

iMac 21.5″, macOS 12.6

Macbook email fails to download content after reading on iPhone I have an occasional issue that MacBook email fails to download content after I have read on my iPhone. Usually just plain text and I get "This message has no content" on my MacBook. No amount of refreshing or exiting email changes this. Please advise!

Email content taking FOREVER to load My email has really started to load slowly over the last couple of months. When I open mail they appear quickly in the list on the sidebar but when an email is highlighted it can take many minutes for the body text/images to load. All this time I see "downloading messages" at bottom of sidebar. It seems like it is redownloading ALL of my new and old emails each time - the counter shows 2,568 emails being downloaded currently. The body of the emails does not appear until this downloading is finished. In my iphone everything works fine as always so it is unique to my desktop mac. What do you suggest I do to correct this?

Disappearing emails on iPhone and iPad On my gmail account as well as several other accounts maintained by my webhost, mesaages randomly disappear. It seems not to matter what email address sent the messages. They are visible one minute and then just gone, sometimes on both the iPad and iPhone, sometimes on only one or the other. If I search for the messages by entering a search term such as "gmail," the message is sometimes listed in the search results, yet if I try to select the message, nothing is displayed. The same messages continue to be displayed with no problems by Mail on my iMac.

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 you have no POP accounts & they’re all IMAP accounts then in Mail’s Mailbox menu choose Rebuild.
