But, anyways they're local files right? Even if I move all my mails from Inbox to some folder created in Local Folders, it'll still be same folder with same amount of e-mails...
Divide and conquer, you know :-)
Ie, don't move them to a single folder, use several: by list, by year, by remittent.... whatever you prefer.
Plus, the inbox folder is somewhat special, I think.

I divided, but couldn't conquer :)
I left only one message in my inbox, moving everything else in Local Folders, and again clicking on it brings that crazy gray look... (actually in status bar scroll-bar tries hard to progress, but then goes back to the beginning)
Ok, I agree that message was 26 mb, but I tried with 4 Mb too, same result. Depressing... ;)
Thanks
Carlos is right - any folder with too many e-mails is going to slow things down when you open that folder. The Inbox is different in that it's the one that opens when you start Thunderbird (if you've configured it that way,) and it is this folder that all all your filtering rules are monitoring That 26MB may have a lot to do with it also - most e-mail servers I know of usually limit the e-mail attachments sizes to something much smaller - say 2MB or so. If' you're sending 26MB files around, better use something like SSH (SFTP) or even YouSendIt <http://www.yousendit.com/> It's secure and saves you the headache of explaining to non-techies how to use FTP. -- Dave Grosvold -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
