Aah, thanks. Looking at the output I don't see much, except the following (towards the end of the file): a0038 STATUS "Spam" (UIDNEXT UIDVALIDITY UNSEEN RECENT MESSAGES) 4< a0038 OK done mutt_num_postponed: 0 postponed IMAP messages found. cmd_new: IMAP command queue full > What it sounds like to me is that mutt is using some feature of IMAP > (probably IDLE) that archiveopteryx can't handle.

I checked all settings from the manual that contain "timeout", but none of them is changed within my .muttrc. So even the smalles timeout is 30 seconds (connect_timeout) and I just need to wait about 5 seconds after the initial read of the inbox to change the mailbox and get the hang. Another thing I just noticed: When I get to open a mailbox it still doesn't show any mails inside that box, even though they are there for sure (as the STATUS messages indicate and the sidebar too).
