I noticed that IMAP is SLOWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW because Claws
checks every folder for new mail, when my email is only filtered when
I launch Claws. 

I did find a way to right click on a folder and go to properties and
uncheck " CHECK FOR MAIL"... So basically Claws skips over checking
that folder for new mail.

I don't think that I could use TB... I like the MH file format, less
chance of corruption.
