Hi there

I've just noticed this (it was never a problem before!)

Not sure what's triggered it... Mavericks? SSD?

When typing an email in Apple Mail, if I have entered a Group Name into the To: field, then there is a real lag when typing (up to a sentence behind me, and no, I'm not that fast!)

If I then go and delete the Group Name, all is restored. I can then enter the Group Name at the end and hit send.

That's of course a work around - I just wonder if anybody knew what caused it and how to fix it?!?!

Thanks

Adam

UPDATE

If I expand the group, the lag goes.

Again, it's a workaround, but why on earth is there a lag when the group isn't listed?!?!

Thanks

AP,

If you have an after-market SSD installed, have you got the TRIM Enabler installed?

Yup, it's enabled. :(

What made you think that might be it?
Any other ideas? It's really rather odd-it's a serious lag, and I've no idea if it's SSD related or not, but certainly was never a problem historically. 

Help!

Try opening Applications > Utilities > Console > monitor it while you recreate the problem, does anything show up related to Mail?

Thanks Sam

I did as instructed, but absolutely nothing appears there relating to Mail at all.

Any other ideas.

I can work round it, as I draft the message and then enter the Group. But it's odd to me that when I 'Expand Group', then type the message, the lag goes.

Could it be SSD related? It never used to be like this previously, but the HD change might be a mere coincidence. And the reboot option doesn't fix it either!?!

Any help gratefully received,

Thanks

Adam
