I think this is a use case specific issue and has

number of filters. I am not sure how and where they are executed, but it
sounds like the GUI is blocked until something executes in the background.
I would not say it is related to the retrieving of the mails as a process
but most probably in something after the message is already there.
You could use tcpdump and wireshark to see the timeline for example.
You probably don't have the debug package installed, but if it is there you
could enable debugging for kmail and some tdeio like pop3 or imap etc.
Restart kmail and see what the log says.
I don't have any better idea for now.
We've most likely spent more time than this is worth already, and like you my
best guess is number of messages combined with number of filters.
BTW it's also not clear which protocol you use -
POP/IMAP?
POP through an always present SSH tunnel.
I was given to understand a decade back by Ingo Kloker
that it was going
to be a major rewrite.
And that’s good enough for me to lay this to rest.
Sounds a bit complex but it all Just Works. 2 mouse
clicks to answer a
message as I am doing now. Whats not to like?
Did you ever do a write up somewhere? I can’t just delete mail (have to have
15 day retention on pretty much everything) but I’ve used most of the tools
you talk about, so I’d like to play with it so to speak.
Thanks All,
