IMAP uses too much bandwidth

2005-11-02 Thread Vilius Šumskas
Hello TBBeta,

  I experimented with The Bat! all day and even half a night, and it
  seems that The Bat!'s IMAP uses too much bandwidth during syncs and
  scans.

  I left TB running for 3 hours. During this time period I recieved
  62MB of data from my mail server and only 2 messages (1kb and 1.5kb).
  Email is automatically checked and fully synchronized every minute.
  So this is ~350KB every minute. It is definetely too much.

  P.S. I have 12 folder with 10k messages on 1 IMAP account.

A major part of the problem is the full synch'ing options. You don't 
have to do that. Doing it will be bandwidth intense. Disable 
synchronisation for your folders and have TB! check folder counts 
intermittently via the fine tune options.
