Really, I don't think that it's a bad idea. I just want to wait for more
ideas, to see if there is some surprisingly better way :)

I just installed sylpheed-claws and found out, that it's _way_ faster
when entering folders. But it blocks while checking for new mails. :|
So, back to the old question... which mailclient fits best for me...
I would really like sylpheed-claws win32, if it would not be so
_extremely_ slow :)

The ultimate solution, I think, would be an html-archive, something
like mailman creates, and then running htdig over that data :)

Thanks for the ideas
