After installing the latest security update on Mac OS X 10.5.6, Mail began to crash on startup. It printed out the message saying the problem may be because of the GrowlMail plugin. Disabling the Growl and removing the GrowlMail plug-in didn’t help. I’d to remove the GrowlMail.mailbundle from both the ~/Library/Mail/Bundles and /Library/Mail/Bundles. Now the Mail is running fine. I stopped using GrowlMail sometime back, when it started “growling” for all the old messages, it was annoying and becoming similar to Windows notifications.
Update: The issue has been posted on GrowlMail’s forum
Thanks for the tip!
Yes, thanks for this, had exactly the same problem. Posted it on the Apple discussion forums but no one seemed to know there, so I’ve posted a link to this post there as well.

i like the design of Safari 4 but i think it uses more resources compared to Opera.
Safari 4 is a bit slow compared to either Opera and Firefox. but i like the interface and graphics of Safari 4, it is cool though.
