Do you think this could be fixed? Could this use a different thread to avoid waiting for inbox refresh?

After this, if i enable "update all folders" i can't receive emails anymore until i remove the flag. (gmail imap account)
I do not know what to do with modest. I tried to fix it slowness more times, but modest app is one big ****.

Also there are 3 divergented modest branches and each has fixed some bugs, but no fixed all.

For example CSSU using master modest branch which has not fixed all bugs which was fixed in PR1.1!!! I forward-ported more commits from PR1.1 and PR1.2 branches to master (CSSU), so maybe something was (again) fixed.

I think that better solution would be to find another mail client. I spent more time for modest, but I think it is not possible to fix it :-(

Btw, if you have problems with modest, try original PR1.3 version if working. And if yes, maybe we should rebase CSSU patches on top of PR1.3 modest version. Maybe it can work better...
