As per title. Won't stay open for more than a few seconds.
Running El Capitan 10.11.6
Any ideas?
Thanks

That's odd. It's happened to me a couple of times over the past few days. In each case it was only affecting one of my folders "deleted items", if I tried to open that then mail crashed. I fixed it by going in to my account via webmail & deleting the last few messages. Could something in one of the emails be causing it ?
Also on El Cap 10.11.6
Edit: I then had to use webmail to empty the trash, as when I tried to open that it crashed as well.
Alternative fix here.

Thanks, that didn't work as it wouldn't stay open long enough to do the fix but I sorted it by deleting my gmail account and recreated it

It's happened again. By dint of using webmail to delete stuff until it stopped crashing I isolated the problem to an email from the London Review Of Books. Do you get stuff from them as well ?
