This is just a heads up. I was just trying again to find the cause of
the slowness of Thunderbird to open bigger emails. A 5 meg email would
take several minutes and high CPU load to open a message. After trying
several things, rebuilding indexes, splitting up emails into several sub
folders, etc, all to no avail, I found a question in a similar subject
thread asking about extensions. I then tried disabling all extensions,
and it worked normally. Trial and error located the culprit, Reply to
List. When started via a console, the console revealed all kinds of
output when a message was clicked on for viewing. I then uninstalled
it, and Thunderbird was back to its normally quick self. I then tried a
bit of research, and found this.
http://lists.opensuse.org/opensuse/2006-11/msg03384.html which discuss
an editor preference that works to reply to list using the Reply to All
button, but it works the same as the reply to list. So I can have a
reply to list without the slowdown for big messages the extension was
causing me. Just in case others are suffering from the same symptom.
