Re: [H] Thunderbird crawls.
I have never seen slowness like you have. In the latest versions of TB there is an option to have it auto compact folders and -not- prompt you to do it (older versions prompted you all the time and it was a pain.) I have had great luck using TB as my primary email client. Sam Franc wrote: No plugins running. I campacted the folders and that helped I have not been doing that as It seems to put all the downloads in my Inbox along with the correct folders they are filtered to. It just did that again when I compacted. Is that a built in fault? Sam Ben Ruset wrote: Do you have any plugins running? Have you compacted all of your folders? Sam Franc wrote: My Thunderbird has just slowed down in it's operations very badly. Even in typing, the words do not sometimes show up on the screen for a few seconds after typing them. When I delete a message it takes 2 seconds to work and then another 2 seconds for the next message to appear. I use Avast on a win2K pro OS. If I uninstall and reinstall will that help? What would you do? Sam
