The strace log is a bit long to attach here, but under one minute of fetching 
emails, it
 - calls gettimeofday about 200 000 times
 - trying to open different files in /usr/share/mime, 20 000 times
 - trying to open gedit.desktop in different directories, 1300 times

...is this really correct behaviour?
