Apple Fixes Rush Limbaugh’s Problem

by Sean Hackbarth

Rush Limbaugh

Apple isn’t dumb. Steve Jobs knows it makes good business sense to please a customer like Rush Limbaugh who has millions listening to him daily. Politics doesn’t matter:

An Apple engineer was assigned to us, and the fix took place last night. I did two weeks of trying it, creating logs for the Apple engineers to look at, and they found the problem. Basically, what we had to do was delete the null mail folder (that’s the folder that processes all e-mail) and then we told the mail app to rebuild its internal director via terminal command, and now it is working flawlessly. So I just wanted to take a moment to thank people at Apple. I’m not going to mention the name of the engineer. I would love to, but if I did, this guy would be taking heat for the rest of his career from people for helping me. But they were very cooperative, and I think it’s going to end up having to be a system-wide fix, which is good, because it’s been discovered.
