It seems pretty stable, although having said that, yesterday I 
experienced my first real issue with it. After pulling some mail it was 
sitting in what appeared to be an endless loop eating 100% CPU time. I 
left it as I needed to go out and didn't want to risk losing mail by 
killing it, but suspected I most likely will have to when I got back. 
Came back to find 87,000 messages in my junk folder, the same 3 or 4 
messages repeated over and over. After a bit of a clean up, everything 
appears fine for most part and I didn't lose any mail. I would say it 
feels less responsive than TB2 when doing multiple tasks and there's a 
few oddities that don't make sense. The first one that springs to mind 
is the lack of ability to show the total number of messages in a folder. 
Requires a 3rd party extension which I think is nuts. I've never had it 
segfault or lose mail yet.
