Great idea to test that. I began with it (before going to edebug more functions): --8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8--- [...@mundaneum] />nc -vv mail imap Connection to mail 143 port [tcp/imap2] succeeded! * OK [CAPABILITY IMAP4rev1 UIDPLUS CHILDREN NAMESPACE THREAD=ORDEREDSUBJECT THREAD=REFERENCES SORT QUOTA IDLE ACL ACL2=UNION STARTTLS XMAGICTRASH] Courier-IMAP ready.

I answered this in the early beginning of the thread: time taken for opening the link seems to be (linearly?) dependant on the size of the mail groups. In INBOX.mc (the group for all work-related emails, containing ~27,000 emails), it takes ~5 mins to open a link from Org. In other normally-sized groups (a couple of 100's of emails), it took a couple of seconds (> 10 s). Maybe a problem is that I keep all of my emails (but the spams...) since the beginning: now, over 140,000 emails entered my INBOX -- only the spams left it. What would be your pieces of advice in such a case? Do I need to test something extra? Get a local imap server? Others (like asking for fixing the search on our Courier mail server)?
