[Users] Slow opening of large folders / folder "reload"

Hi Guys,

I've been using claws for a few months now and i like it a lot.
I'm currently using 3.8.0 on Fedora 16 against my company's Zimbra LDAP.

The problem i have is that sometimes -- can't really pinpoint why -- when
opening large folders (e.g. > 5000 messages), claws takes a very long time
to open the folder, with a progress bar in the bottom that seems to be
re-reading every message from that folder (see attached screenshot).

That operation blocks any mail sending/receiving while that progress bar is
in progress.
Is there something i have mis-configured ?

Killing & relaunching claws, and clicking on the folder it couldn't open is
generally instantaneous after restarting claws.
It does not always occur on the same folder, nor does it happen every time,
but it's more likely to happen if the folder is large.

Please let me know what you think,
Cheers,
Romain.
