2008-11-15 03:25:38 John Pye thunderbird: statusexplanation To circumlocute: When you open a message with a large attachment, it requires a long delay and it appears that Thunderbird downloads the entire message including attachment, even if the attachment is not actually being rendered to screen (eg a file attachment of some sort). Then, when the file attachment is double-clicked, Thunderbird then opens a 'Downloads' dialog and again starts to download the attachment. Not clear if this is a limitation of IMAP or something silly that Thunderbird is doing with caching or something like that. But it's very annoying when your IMAP provider only permits something like 50 kB or less as the download rate, or worse, if you are on a low bandwidth line, because reading the text part of the message still requires the whole message download (i.e. you might as well be using POP3!)
