Thanks everyone. It does seem to be to do with replying for those of you 
who have this happening, so I'll change the settings for reply 
autocompletion and see what happened.


(That message took several days to send (for some reason) before gmail 
finally authenticated me. In the meantime, this gave me an excuse to buy 
a PCI SATA connector (which gives twice as fast disk access on this 
generation of Mac Pro) and it's noticeably improved. But some replies 
still seem to need 10-20 seconds.)


Thanks for helping me focus my thoughts on this. I'll report back soon.

cheers

Re: [MlMt] sluggist Mailmate - how to optimise?

[Dan Pritts]

Oddly enough, I switched to Mailmate because of similar issues with Postbox.  
Their support thought my mailboxes were too big.  Even after I totally 
recreated my profile, it got awfully slow.

Mailmate has been blazingly fast; I have experienced no slowdowns like you 
describe.  That said, i only use one account with a relatively small number of 
gmail mailboxes/tags.   And one nice thing about mailmate is that the speed has 
helped me clean out those huge mailboxes, so they're smaller than they were.  
Hmm.  

thanks

Re: [MlMt] sluggist Mailmate - how to optimise?

I see occasional delays of 10 to 30 seconds when starting a reply 
message. My first guess, given the powerful search features of MailMate, 
is that a large database index is being rebuilt periodically. This may 
be related to personal configuration, since the reply address completion 
feature can be tweaked to draw from a potentially large dataset.

Has anyone else noticed this of late? And any ideas as to:

1. What to do,  and/or
2. What and how to report this to Benny?

Thanks.

Hi folks

I'm a huge fan of mailmate but in recent months (I think largely 
since
the last OS update) it's bordered on unusable for me. I see the 
spinning
pizza for on average ten seconds when I hit 'reply' and frequently 
when
I click on a different message. Or it might take that long as I try 
to
add an address to a new message. Even typing appears in fits and 
starts.


I'm using a 2010 Mac Pro with 20 gigs of RAM, an SSD start-up 
connected
via PCIE. Almost the only time it's sluggish is with MM. I have 
multiple

accounts with thousands of emails.

This is not a moan or a complaint; I recognise I'musing an old 
machine,

albeit maxed-out. I'm asking for informed suggestions about how to
reduce whatever load I'm putting on the app so that it can be snappy. 
Eg

reducing the number of accounts? I don't want to just try things that
take quite a while to actually do (ie switching the less-used ones to
Mail). Or perhaps that won't do any good. I would consider a new SSD
(but as I said, everything else seems pretty responsive).

Any suggestions about things to turn off or avoid very welcome.

Thanks
Jason

Re: [MlMt] sluggist Mailmate - how to optimise?

[Chaim Kram]

Hi,

Like Jason I’ve also noticed frequent sluggishness and spinning 
beachballs only for the last 2 or 3 months. Plus the occasional freeze. 
Before that I never encountered any of this, ever. I have a MacBook Pro 
15” 2017 running Mojave (10.14.6).


Has anyone else noticed this of late? And any ideas as to:

1. What to do,  and/or
2. What and how to report this to Benny?

Thanks.

Re: [MlMt] Changes in mail list scrolling behavior with v1.13 (5655)

[Florian Heidenreich]

Hi again,

I think this was a false alarm - sorry to all who already tried to 
reproduce it. I’ve set changed the sorting in the meanwhile and set it 
to „Date Received“ again and now it seems to work like before.


Kind regards

Hi all,

I’ve noticed a slight but hard to ignore change in the mail list

Now, whenever a new mail arrives, it doesn’t automatically scroll 
down to show the new email. Instead, I need to manually scroll down to 
see the newly arrived email which is one additional manual step and 
also doesn’t visually indicate in the list that a new mail has 
arrived.


Is there some hidden or unhidden preference to change the scrolling
