Well, the far easier way would be to use mutt's built-in debugging support. That way, with a second terminal, you could use tail(1) to see what it's doing including the network traffic in plain. That could also answer the question whether it's mutt being slow in processing answers or your IMAP server in providing them. > Bill, are you saying that after the initial 30 second process for your > Gmail, everything loads up instantly (specific email messages, etc.) > afterwards? I'm not Bill, but once the message is in body cache: yes. Rocco
