If you really want to live on the bleeding edge then please try some of the patches which have been posted, but won't be merged anytime soon due to political reasons. For example, I posted a patch which speeds up the display of the "Unread Mail" folder by _several orders of magnitude_, but it won't be merged anytime soon because it disables hiding of junk messages (which IMHO was so inefficiently implemented that it should never have been allowed in, but now that we have the "feature" we can't just rip it out, even for a 100x speedup in displaying the message list). See the "Performance with Exchange 2003" thread, among others. I get the impression that none of the Evolution developers have even tried my patch, no one around here seems to care about performance. If I could get one other user to confirm the massive speedup, maybe someone would notice.
