--- Comment #9 from Tomas F <pulauten at gmail.com> ---
I would argue that this is a design mistake though. Why does someone need to
load the whole folder offline which can take many minutes when you could
harvest the addresses from the headers only which you have loaded in the client
already? It could work in a few seconds and this way it takes long minutes.

Not speaking about how counterintuitive this feature is. You should really at
least indicate somehow why it only downloads a few messages instead of the
whole folder.
