I was on vacation for a 3-day weekend, and am just now having time to reply. I followed your most recent instructions above - I turned off all synchronizing modes but did subscribe to the Gmail IMAP folders. That seems to work well. Thank you for that tip. I hope at some point your notes above make their way into the TB help files. > The best way to use IMAP on a DSL connection is just to switch any > synchronisation off and read IMAP folders just like they are normal > folders.

I have no idea of how huge a task that is, but I think it would make TB more popular at IMAP sites (Gmail, fastmail.fm, etc.). Thanks again for your good feedback. I hope you could relax some during your "short vacation."
