Can anyone explain the easiest way to start over with Apple Mail? I don't believe there's a way of uninstalling Mail from the System, but I'd like to reset Mail to "original" and set up my IMAP Gmail accounts all over again.

quit Mail and delete the file ~/library/preferences/com.apple.mail.plist, the whole folder ~/library/mail and the whole folder ~/library/maildownloads. ~ means your home directory. you can get to it by clicking on the house icon in the sidebar of any finder window or by going to /users/username.
