Thanks for all the help everyone, I managed to track down the problem. I had been checking the apache logs but for a reason unknown even to me I never thought to actually check the mail log! I had entries as follows: Error: Input/outout error Check for proper operation and configuration of the File Access Monitor daemon (famd). Failed to create cache file: maildirwatch (dquinn) A bit of googling told me i needed to install FAM so a quick "apt-get install fam" and the folder list is nice and fast again. Note to Self: Read ALL of the logs! Thanks again everyone.
