Yikes ... the above performance doesn't seem very scalable.
I'm currently doing Production work with a client and when there's an
`event', I may get an in-rush of several hundred messages in one
shot. After sorting the messages by Subject, I usually can delete
nearly all of them.
FWIW, I'm currently using Thunderbird although I long for the day when
I can return to Kmail2.
Cheers,
