Re: [Declude.Virus] blocking eml and msg attachments
Darin, I would suggest maybe trying 1.0.6 instead of the beta. I have no measurable delay moving from one message to another; it's instantaneous. Even in the IMail Forum which I have messages going back to 1/1/2004, everything happens instantly. I am not on a laptop, and my system is only slightly faster as far as the stats go, but I don't think that makes a difference. Maybe the newer versions do things differently. I would doubt that the developers would accept a noticeable slowdown in a final version.

Startup speed for Thunderbird is way faster than OE at just a few seconds compared to 20-30 seconds for OE, however I leave email open all day every day, so startup isn't much of an issue for me. What I am seeing much slower in Thunderbird is moving from one message to another in the preview window. In OE it's very snappy with ~1/2 second response, but in Thunderbird I'm seeing 1-3 seconds before I can read the message. Also, double-clicking to open the message is between 0.5 and 1 second in OE, but 3-4 seconds in Thunderbird. So, for reading mail quickly, it's much slower for me on a 3GHz P4 laptop with 1GB RAM. I have about 1GB of email in a couple hundred folders.

RE: [Declude.Virus] blocking eml and msg attachments
My bad. I was not banning eml and msg. I realized that as I was getting AOL feedbacks. What I was banning was 1.msg as there was a virus reported to be using that. Sniffer responds to false positives and in doing so, renames the request to 1.msg as an attachment to the response.
