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...
I'm glad you came up with a good solution for your email problems. I found another one that might appeal to you as well. I read a very complimentary review of the KDE4 KMail client, and figured I'd give it a try. I've used Thunderbird for years on Windows and Linux machines, and I like it a lot, but it's got some warts that have been with us for far too long. It seemed like something else might be worth a try. Indeed, so far, I'm thrilled with KMail. It has a cleaner UI, IMHO, and good features that are implemented well. For example, my list replies go to the list if I simply "Reply" to a list message. And the editor doesn't insert and remove newlines at random. And it doesn't keep telling me that "Thunderbird thinks this message is spam" for every weather forecast I get, despite all the times I've clicked the "not spam" button. It just seems a lot cleaner, and more intelligently put together. You might find you like it better, too, and it's probably already installed. If you select the "leave messages on server" option, you can give it a try without interfering with your Thunderbird message store. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
