I don't think there is any noticeable difference in Thunderbird loading

No, I'm running mutt on my home machine, which fetches it using
fetchmail. CPU time is not a problem, disk reading time is.
Are you running on a 286 or so? Your mailbox will most likely largely be
in RAM too. These are issues for your client to deal with.. rather than
the rest of the world to optimise for you! (Hopefully I don't sound too
blunt..)
Kind regards, Jon
