Thank you. I'll submit a bug report. But before I do, I decided to download 
the source code and see if i can figure out what's going on. After some 
debugging, I think the slowness might be due to the fact that every time an 
email header is checked, the message-list object gets a redraw request, 
even if the header being checked is no different from an existing one.

This appears to be causing a huge amount of garbage collection and other 
unnecessary processing which does nothing except slow everything down 
considerably ... especially for folders which contain a large number of 
messages (hundreds). 

I'm going to diagnose this further, and once I'm able to zero in on the 
problem with a bit more certainty, I'll post the bug report.
