Thanks. You saved my day. I wasn't aware of this.

mutt has header_cache, man muttrc

There is no caching of the mails in any database and update the cached
information off-line.


If you haven't already, try setting $header_cache and
$message_cachedir. According to the mutt manual, you are likely to
achieve the best performance if the cache variables point to directories
(you can also store cache in files). If using directories for the caching,
make sure they exist on the file system before launching mutt. You can
safely use the same dir for both.

Best, Anders
