I assume that by "load a folder" you're referring to indexing a folder of previously unseen messages. This is an operation you will only rarely perform in real life, so I'm not sure how relevant the test is. I have several IMAP folders that are much larger than this (e.g. the Evolution list of over 17,000 messages or the Fedora Users list of over 40,000) and notice no performance problem at all. I'm also on Fedora 27 and my /home is on a conventional 7200rpm drive. poc ___ evolution-list mailing list evolution-list@gnome.org To change your list options or unsubscribe, visit ... https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/evolution-list

It may depend on your IMAP server and particular configuration options but I wouldn't count on Evolution performing better than Thunderbird. The last time I used Evolution was on Fedora 27 (so it was a recent build) on a test computer with a nice old 5,200 RPM hard drive. I asked it to load a folder of 12,000 messages and it was SO SLOW I had to abort and reran it with libeatmydata because Evolution was sending a continuous stream of fsync calls for sqlite databases. It could PROBABLY wait until it had read the whole folder of mail before syncing. Really.

I perform this by setting the Inbox as the Sent folder (Edit → Preferences → Account → Defaults), and later move to the proper folder using a manually-triggered filter. Note however that this has the side-effect of making the Reply button to work as Reply All on the inbox (as the inbox is at the same time the Sent folder, and the Reply option is made to work this way there since usually you don't want to reply to yourself). It's not a big issue when you are aware of it, but it was hard to me to find out what was happening.

[Evolution] Save sent messages in a chosen folder
I'm looking to move away from Thunderbird, for performance reasons. I'm involved in lots of groups, and like to keep all the emails for those groups together, including the ones I send. One of the features I'm looking for is the ability to specify what folder to save an email I am sending in, at composition time. Thunderbird has a plugin that lets me do this. It defaults to one folder (Sent), but I can choose via pulldown to save the sent email to the current folder, or any other folder. I don't really understand why this is not a popular thing for people to want to do, but I don't hear others asking for it much. If you're involved in 4 different groups, do you let all your sent mail go to Sent no matter what the mail is about? Doesn't that make it hard to find conversations later? Is there a way to do this in Evolution?
