So I offloaded that fetching of emails by making fetchmail, procmail, clamscan and spamassassin all into background tasks that have minimal effect on kmail. Now my freezes are maybe a second as it sorts an incoming email that has servived the spam and viri filters.Good point! (this is Thunderbird not KMail but still applies) For IMAP mail, I recommend more modern alternatives to fetchmail: * pullimap * offlineimap Could you recommend one of them to use with an install of the
box-add-gui alternative for Teres-I? As far as I can see, pullimap needs libconfig-tiny-perl and libinterimap, and offlineimap needs python-imaplib2 and python-socks. Perhaps one is more lightweight than the other? Best regards. //Erik |
