Anyway,
Which IMAP Server are you using? From my experience "dovecot" is faster than any IMAP server, ESPECIALLY if it comes to huge mailboxes, because it uses per mailbox "index database files". You might give it a try, if you have got the possibility.

Robert

Unsubscribing should help because only subscribed folders are listed

Don't know why the CVS version runs slower than the latest build...
Yes, unsubscribing from my larger 'archive' folders did the trick, it's very fast to login now, as I probably have perhaps 15,000 messages in my 'current' folders vs 80,000ish in my archive folders.
It *seemed* it was slower in the 102505 CVS than the 102105 release, but might have been my imagination.
