How to Use MacMini iTunes 8 Video Full Screen Issue
Sep 15

I was inspecting the total size consumed by Applications in my Mac using Disk Inventory . I came to know that Mail app is actually taking lot of space in the Hard Drive as compared to my usual Mail applications in Windows platform. Precisely Apple default Mail application is approx 290MB in size . I inspected inside the Mail app to know what exactly is it thats taking so much of space and knew that there are some unused localization folders ( i guess language specific folders ) . I realised that i am only going to use English as language in my Mac so i thought i could delete all other Language specific folders except “English.lproj” . After deleting all those i saw no difference in the Mail app , theoretically which is as expected . Now my Mail.app size is just 27 MB and have faced no Problem and assume i wont get any problem as long as my Mac language is set to English. To summarize the tip

Right click Mail.app > Show Package Content > Inside Content folder > Resources > Sort by Size > Delete all language folders except English.lproj ( if you use english )
