Well, at home I'm working with IMAP at 21.6Kbit dial-up. So speed is a
really *big* issue for me. And I prefer to use TB! without any
synchronization - I just walk through folders and TB! loads only UIDS
and Flags (downloading headers for last 1000 mails from TBBETA is
quite slowly on clients which load full headers) . After selecting
folder I'm walking through unread messages and only they are loaded -
no overhead. So...
May be Thunderbird is faster on wide connections, don't know and have
no possibility to test
