Apple mail crashes when selecting an inbox

Certain emails cause Apple Mail to crash.

The two companies who have this problem (so far) are Linkedin.com and Confused.com. Their emails will crash Apple Mail in an instant, if they are shown on the screen. So if the emails are off-screen there is no problem. But if you scroll down to them, Mail crashes. Or if you do a search that access them, Mail crashes.

To find which emails are the problem, go to iCloud.

Empty the trash

Place the last week's emails from inbox to trash.

Open Apple Mail on the desktop - it should open ok.

On iCloud, slowly add emails from trash to inbox, while looking at Apple Mail.

When Apple Mail crashes, that is the malware email.

Then permanently delete offending emails.

And complain to the companies sending them.

So far, they are Linkedin.com and Confused.com
