I vaguely remember other issues with IMAPX - is it possible for you to change it to plain IMAP? > > Here's a line copied from 'top': > > 15816 lynx 20 0 1926m 295m 19m R 98.9 7.6 0:16.54 evolution How much memory does your system have? Evo is using nearly 2Gb of memory with only 295Mb resident - so it is probably swapping lots which will be slowing things down a lot. In top how is that 99% CPU time being split between the various run states - i.e what does the "Cpu(s):" line say - mine currently says: Cpu(s): 4.7%us, 1.5%sy, 0.0%ni, 93.4%id, 0.0%wa, 0.2%hi, 0.1%si, 0.0%st which is fairly normal. You need to be worried if the 'sy' and 'wa' times are high. In any case, I suspect that most of that memory is your Inbox - how big is your inbox (as in Mb, not number of messages)? It may well be worth while just seeing how the system behaves if you disable the search folders - does the memory usage decrease now it doesn't have to process all the messages in the Inbox all the time.
