In addition to cleaning up, compacting and organizing mail folders as mentioned, be aware that TB can bog down a bit when fetching new mail. How long the lag depends on a how much it needs to do to sort through the plain test mail box files. I have mine set to fetch mail (3 accounts, with filters to automatically sort 7 mail lists into separate folders) and RSS newsfeeds (17) every 30 min, along with 2 calendar updates and Enigmail OpenPGP extension. The lag is typically only 1-2 seconds every 1/2 hour or so if I happen to be typing at the same time. Check how often you have TB set to check mail and sort/organize/backup old mail. -Ed _______________________________________________ PLUG mailing list [email protected] http://lists.pdxlinux.org/mailman/listinfo/plug
