I have no problems with sylpheed, and only use imap. It only brings down
new headers. However, I think that people with 100,000 emails in a
single folder may also need to look inwards for the cause of the problem
or outwards.
Tools like procmail are great - they automatically redirect mail list
messages to the correct subfolder. On a busy list, with all messages going to
one folder, the folder size can grow quite large.
Why should I have to manually move messages from a folder just because
the mail client can't cope with a large folder?
I want all the messages, so I can easily search backwards through for old
posts...
Besides - It is a gigahz machine. The mail client should cope with lots
of messages in the folder. If the mail client cannot cope with lots of
messages, it is a software design issue. pine/alpine copes Perfectly with
lots of messages. Other mail clients fail - that was my point.

By shockwave, I assume you mean flash? It's now owned by adobe, and
there is no 64 bit support. You can use the 32 bit player with
ndispluginwrapper... here's an example link:

Thanks for the link.
