I wonder if it's not because of that email... I had the same problem once, and what happened is that a window asking for the login chain password popped and VO didn't aknowledge it. I randomly went to the window selector (vo+f2 twize) and found out there was that window in there. I closed it and mail worked again. So try to see if there's any window opened that you didn't know about... Good luck!

Hi, Today I was happily reading my email until a strange situation involving what seems to be a single email start to happen. I opened the message, read its contents and tried to delete it. Deleting didn't work with the keystroke, going to the toolbar and choosing delete or hitting the close button. When I tried to shut down, I got an error that said I had to force quit mail first so I did and it restarted. I restarted Mail after it rebooted and was faced with the same email and the same "no way out" state. I tried a few more times to shut down and do a few other things but, alas, all has done nothing but leave me with Mail broken. Any ideas? I had to use my Windows laptop to do this email.
