Suggestion: Thunderbird does local compacation of the mailstor, and deletio= ns=20 that hit the threshold and trigger this may be slower than others. (I have a vague sense thunderbird does this; I could be wrong. Assuming the= =20 server is using Maildir I don't see why this should happen on the serversid= e,=20 nor have I had that experience even with large folders (large enough that n= o=20 mail client can handle them properly)). =2D-=20 / Peter Schuller PGP userID: 0xE9758B7D or 'Peter Schuller <peter.schuller@infidyne.com>' Key retrieval: Send an E-Mail to getpgpkey@scode.org E-Mail: peter.schuller@infidyne.com Web: http://www.scode.org --nextPart1254510.ZaAbS1NqWC Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name=signature.asc Content-Description: This is a digitally signed message part. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2.0.4 (FreeBSD) iD8DBQBHe/x8DNor2+l1i30RAoh3AJ4spD0sOul+MqEC1EUzFFCAWTdN2wCfeN76 r5AkIW/a0LSHR8yaYPNKqNo= =ZUP4 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --nextPart1254510.ZaAbS1NqWC--
