<font face="Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif">Hello, <br>
I apologize if this has been asked before. I have looked at this
year's archives for a similar thread. <br>
<br>
I have been using Claws Mail for a few months now. I have three
accounts on it, one GMail work account with some ~15K archived
messages, separated by year. My inbox has very few messages, just
the ones that need attention. I also have two personal IMAP
accounts, one with several thousands of messages archived. <br>
<br>
I have noticed that Claws Mail is very busy downloading or
flagging messages all the time. Most of the times these operations
are synchronous and block the whole application. When I access my
inbox, if I am online I have to wait (sometimes for a while) for
the folder to sync before I even get to see the list of messages.
Also, if an IMAP connection fails, a modal window appears and
until I click that away (which may be for a while when I am
working on another screen), no mail is retrieved. <br>
<br>
I have set all folders to not sync except for the inboxes. Still
sometimes I see a progess bar like "Downoading message 3124 of
11683". This activity is so frequent that the application is
becoming unusable.<br>
<br>
I am quite sure that somebody has had this issue before. Is it
possible to let some operations run asynchronously? Or is another
way to make the application more responsive? And why is Claws
continuously downloading my archived messages? <br>
<br>
Thank you,<br>
Stefano<br>
