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 Lorenzowith 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...
Ah.Right-click on each folder and choose Properties. Make sure that the "Check this folder for new messages" box is un-checked.
Other than that, I think you'll have to suffer. Or revert to Tbird 1.5. -- Ron Johnson, Jr. Jefferson LA USA Give a man a fish, and he eats for a day. Hit him with a fish, and he goes away for good!
