As James points out, T'Bird only needs to do the 'big download' once. Do that when you are at home and have add that bandwidth and time.
I repeat. It crashes. It stalls. It randomly skips some mail bodies. And the next time I run the sync, it again takes hours. I repeat, I'm no novice, I have done what you people describe. I found a better way years ago, I'm happy with it, and I'm NOT changing it.
