You know, I've really felt like Evolution has become very bloated 
recently.  I don't know if that's just me or what.  I did a test last 
night with it and found that it's not quite as fast as IMAP in 
Thunderbird, but it was usable.  Granted, it seemed slower to me than 
when I used it last time.  As I've said, I've rather moved away from it 
because it seems sluggish recently and have preferred Thunderbird more.
