I didn't mean 4 seconds per message, I meant 4 seconds to start
evolution and have all that fits of my inbox listing on the screen
along with a sidebar showing all my other folders and their unread
message counts. I don't think I could measure the time it takes to go
message-to-message. That's basically instant.  One of the 'other'
folders catches all the failed inbound mail for a domain that gets so
much spam I gave up on trying to return the bad addresses so it
accumulates at least a thousand an hour.  it might take a couple of
minutes to complete the expunge of 30,000 or so but viewing, selecting,
deleting is still fast. (With Imap a delete just marks it for deleting,
the expunge is the file operation).  These speeds are on a local
ethernet with the server (an SME server using maildir storage).  It
goes a little slower from home but still not bad.
