Well it's a little hard to see exactly what's going on as all the traffic 
is encrypted (imaps). It's not too practical to use normal imap as it's 
running over the internet.

What I can see is that there's a fairly constant stream of traffic, mostly 
coming from the imapd. It looks as though the new imap implementation is 
requesting a _lot_ more information that the old version. It doesn't seem 
to be hanging anywhere.

As mentioned previously, pine/imap seems to be working fine for me now so 
I'm likely to stick with it and try the next version of evolution when it 
appears.

Simon.
