e-mail is extremely slow. I see "Not Responding". What can I do? SOLVED imap folder too large
It takes a very long time to process the e-mails when I click on them, whether to retrieve, delete, etc. Sometimes it is worse than other times. It usually says Mozilla Thunderbird not responding with the spinning thing.

I moved stuff from my IMAP mail to local storage. I also rebuilt the mail database. Thank you for your help. I very much appreciate it.

Sounds like you may have your Anti-Virus product scanning emails, so it is temporarilly interruptng thunderbird.
Suggest you stop your anti-virus from scanning Thunderbird folders or emails.
I would also suggest you create a backup of your profile and then compact all folders to remove all traces of previously deleted emails.

Are you saying your imap Inbox was very large?
Yes. The imap inbox was too large.
