mod parent up!

Having said that... I always thought thunderbird downloads all mail to perform its spam filter check. It seems strange that it *still* needs the server connection to display the mails.

that may be an additional reason, but it was downloading the entire mail evenbefore it gained spam filters and does so even if spam filters are disabled (say you have server-level spam filters)

some/many IMAP servers have very extensive mail filtering capabilities (including the ability to have per-user filter rules on the server)
