Mail: memory hog



I'm transitioning to Leopard Server from Solaris and have noticed that Apple Mail is a complete and total memory hog. I've got 4 GB RAM on a brand-new MacPro. As soon as I fire up Mail, it consumes all of the available memory and the system grinds to a halt. I see minimal CPU activity, but the machine is sluggish as molasses. I've switched to Thunderbird and don't see this behavior at all. Since this is a brand new machine, there's almost no mail on it.

Anyone have any ideas what's going on here? Or how to improve the situation?

Many thanks,

Benn
