[Evolution] slow mail download

[Ben Miller <wheelscribe gmail com>]

I'm sorry if this has been asked before, but I couldn't find mention of
it in the archives. When checking any of my POP accounts, Evolution
takes a very long time to download mail, even if it's only two of three
messages. Other clients (Thunderbird, for example) don't seem to have
this problem. What can I do to resolve that? I'm running on Ubuntu,
Hoary Hedgehog 5.04.

Thanks, 
Ben
