I did some testing and could not really understand evo's behaviour. All tests were done for "message contains", I used short German names as search phrase, my mailboxes do contain around 1000 messages.
First test run - online All searches were slow - 17-22s Second test run - offline Choose "synchronize folder locally for offline use" All searches then quick - 1,5 -2,5s Third test run - online again First search carried out is slow All following searches are quick This happens independently from the folder settings (folder list > properties) and the setting under "edit > settings > eamil accounts > reception options > options - automatically synchronize remote emails locally" So I'm a little out of clue now. Performance improved greatly for unknown reasons and I'm not unhappy with the situation now Nevertheless it might not be ideal and deserves some occasional further research . Cheers, Wolf
