Subject: nnimap doing redundant work?
Date: Sun, 09 Mar 2003 08:57:31 -0500 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <u65qsve0k.fsf@boost-consulting.com> (raw)
I have been lamenting for some time that using my IMAP server through
GNUs seems to be much slower than working with a dedicated email
program like Mulberry, but recently I have been noticing something
strange. When I watch my message area, it seems as though nnimap is
usually repeating the same work twice. For example, I just did `M-G'
in my INBOX summary buffer and my *Messages* buffer contains:
Expiring articles...done
nnimap: Updating info for INBOX...done
Retrieving newsgroup: INBOX...
nnimap: Updating info for INBOX...done
Fetching headers for INBOX...done
Generating summary...done
Note "Updating info for INBOX...done" appears twice. When I
initially enter GNUs, I often see the message
nnimap: Mailbox <whatever> modified
twice for several values of <whatever>.
Is this expected? Is it possible that there's something wrong with
my settings that is causing this behavior? Lastly, are there any
clues for me about how to speed up IMAP interactions? Reading news
via NNTP, just moving to the next article still seems way faster than
doing it under IMAP.
Many thanks,
