Hi, i have 11000+ messages in my POP3 account and don't see the slowdown you are experiencing. I can't offer an explanation why you have such a problem though. -- BRS Atanas Zhelev Thanks Atanas, I don't know what it is either. I know it didn't used to be there. For testing, I loaded thunderbird again, and the responsiveness of tbird is perfect. I know tbird is using mbox and kmail defaults to maildir, but honestly, the largest folder I have has a little over 41k messages in it and I can literally go get a Dr. Pepper waiting for kmail to read and thread the messages each time I access any folder with 8K plus messages. I'll check on a box with a fresh ~/ directory (without all the setting mods in ~/.kde4/share/... I have on my arch box). I'll report back if I hit on something. -- David C. Rankin, J.D.,P.E.

I filed a bug report some time ago, maybe this is what you are experiencing? It's about having more than 1000 unreaded mails in a folder.

Well the initial access to a folder (after kmail install) takes a few seconds, but after that it's usually fast. I just counted and I have about 51k mails. You should note that this also relies on your imap server performance. I had used courier before and switched to dovecot which is a lot faster. Pierre Thanks Pierre. I use dovecot. The message reloading/sorting that is slow is mail stored locally from a pop3 server so the filtering is all done from ~/.kde4/share/apps/kmail. It's like kde4 has slowed down. My 2 imap accounts are fine. I'll keep an eye on it. -- David C. Rankin, J.D.,P.E.
