Seems like loads of people are having the same issue I encountered thinking I’d be clever and use Mail.app rather than Gmails web interface. The main issue is that its SUPER SLOW, and seems to be downloading messages for days on end.

I found a combination of things seems to have sped it up and made it behave more as I would have expected.

Firstly follow the instructions laid out here:
http://db.tidbits.com/article/10253

Secondly disable “Use IDLE command if the server supports it”
http://getsatisfaction.com/apple/topics/mail_app_slow_delay_imap_synchronization

Things should start to behave. All seems to be ok now that my 5000+ emails have all been synced!

I didnt realise Slick Rick was actual born very near to where I’m living at the moment here in London. Crazy, an he was actually blind in that one eye, I thought maybe it was just his fashion thing. Where would we be without Wikipedia!? haha.

When’s the last time you heard some positive rap lyrics that can compare to this…

“Hey young world… the world is yours..

This rap here… it may cause concern its
Broad and deep… why dont you listen and learn..

Get ahead… and accomplish things
Youll see the wonder and the joy life brings

Go for yours, cause dreams come true

Societys a weak excuse for a man
Its time for the brothers… rap is trying to take the stand”

- Slick Rick, Hey Young World.

Converse Chuck Taylor Padded Collar Highs. My old Chucks had holes in the soles and came accross these bad boys @ Brixton FootLocker and had to cop em’ (mine are grey tho nicer than the pictured) ..stoked with these they look great with jeans. Remind me of the Supra High shapes, but not as “over the top”.
