Hello Tbudl,

aas Plus, as suggested before, besides the 3 currently available options,
aas an additional 4th option (iPad-like) might really be useful:
aas * Headers only
aas * Headers and Textual Parts
aas * Entire messages
aas --- Apply choice to _ most recent messages
aas The default might be all messages, but the user could input a number
aas like 500 or 1000. I just don't need to see hundreds of thousands of
aas email headers from previous decades on an SSD disk where empty
aas space is still at a premium, and displaying and browsing such gigantic
aas folders is probably just slowing down The Bat.
aas I'm now going to drastically cut down on the number of subscribed
aas folders to see if it makes any difference on the overall speed and
aas usability of the IMAP Bat. :-)
I'm not sure about that option, but you could use TB's filtering features to
move files to a separate folder based on the number of emails or the age of
the
emails. This could be an archive folder and you could just unsubscribe that
folder.
I agree though that there seems to be something wrong with IMAP in general.
Things take too long to download, much longer than they used to before the
major
IMAP upgrade. Large amounts of data seem to get downloaded even though nothing
has changed since the last update.
Another thing I just discovered, and I wonder if you or someone else could test
it. I picked a folder that had over 1000 messages in it and right clicked on
the
folder and selected empty folder. It appeared to empty the folder and it is
now in the process of downloading every message again. In other words the local
folder was emptied and now it is filling it up again, instead of emptying the
folder on the server and then syncing the empty folder.
Also as mentioned earlier filtering messages seems to be hit and miss.
