I think this is due to the fact that it builds a summary (the one shown in the right bottom corner of the screen) of the new arrived emails by inspecting all the IMAP folders. Is there a way to disable this feature? I couldn't find it in the preferences... thanks in advance Lorenzo
with IMAP I only fetch message headers only (and actually I didn't find that option in the preferences); I think the problem still persists also when downloading message headers only: thunderbird seems to inspect all the folders for new message headers to show the summary... I'd like to get rid of that summary...
