Pardon my ignorance, but why can't the IMAP server store your emails compressed? Maybe you should complain to the operator of the IMAP server if, in your opinion, they are wasting storage space. Or complain to its authors if you are operate the server yourself. Given the insane growth of email headers it would actually make sense that the IMAP server used compression. Taking your message (as it is stored on my IMAP server) as example: Size of the header: 12,315 bytes Size of the body: 8,556 bytes. By the way, why is the body of your message base64 encoded? Was is re-encoded in flight or did your Thunderbird send your unsigned plain text message base64 encoded? Regards, Ingo
