IIRC I saw other mail clients running nuts with my Gmail account and always wondered what the problem is. This might have been the cause. One idea: Since I expect I can't search these "not fetched" messages at the moment, it's a bit hard to remember to search my old mails as well. How about having a feature that does a live-search against this folder so I at least can see if there is something in it? -- Robert M.
