I agree that mutt could do a better job of handling it, but all the MUAs I’ve
ever used extensively (Thunderbird, Lotus Notes, Outlook, Apple Mail) have had
a similar problem of choking up once mailboxes reach the high thousands. I’m
not going to delve into the philosophy of whether sorting that much mail is a
job for mutt or for another, specialised mail filing/sorting application.
You should file a bug report/feature request, and in the meantime, you’ll
probably have to fall back on Stardiviner’s workaround until it gets fixed.
