I use Preside, I have around 300 000 emails, split into multiple
folders, and it works fine. I found it the closest thing to Mailmate
(although I find it much less ergonomic on the iPad). I also used
Altamail, but for some unknown reasons (I suspect due to the fact that I
use an Exchange server), some of my folders never appear in the list.
Therefore I stopped using it.

Do you know if this is an issue with individual IMAP *folders* or IMAP

interpret "inbox" in

The app can check an Inbox with 50 emails a LOT faster than it can
check an Inbox with 5,000 emails.”
Does that mean if we don't subscribe to huge folders we will be ok,
even if we have a lot of them? Or is this more a function of the
overall number of message in the account as a whole?
I'm ok with the first, but I have at least one IMAP account that is
huge.

he's incredibly helpful and replies quickly.

Preside is very powerful but totally fails on large inboxes (I have
1.000.000+ messages). I gave it 2 weeks to try and stop fetching
new messages but never completed.
It never managed to show new messages consistently because of this.
In the end I've settled with Spark which has decent smart folders
and does not choke on the big inbox.

First, thanks to Guillaume Barrette for the article plug elsewhere in
this thread. :-)
The Preside dev is, indeed, extraordinarily helpful and responsive;
but he also hints within Preside’s FAQ page about issues with
mailboxes with massive numbers of emails. For example, in
https://preside.io/faq.html#NotificationsTooLong: “One more thing
that can help a lot is to keep your Inboxes clean. The app can check
an Inbox with 50 emails a LOT faster than it can check an Inbox with
5,000 emails.”
Of course, that reference is specifically about notifications, and
thus perhaps unrelated to the issue mentioned here. Just FYI.
Best wishes,
