Browsing speed

Just wanted to share that I sent an inquiry to this post months ago because the refreshing of my folders (50k emails, aprox) was very slow due to the encryptation of my home folder. Yesterday I decided to move my folders to a new EXT4 partition (with "noatime,data=writeback,barrier=0,nobh,errors=re

offlineimap much slower than gmail-imap

I was happily using mutt with gmail-imap. Then I decided to switch to offlineimap+msmtp, so I could still use mutt offline, have a backup of all my e-mails and, hopefully, increase mutt speed by working locally. But, after having all installed an all my e-mails already downloaded (10GB / 45.000 e-m
