A huge slowness for Evo IMAP is the fact that it has to ask for

attachment icons in the message-list, etc.

This is only 'much faster' if the server caches this info - some do not,
and infact have to create the info from the header anyway.  Fetching
headers isn't really the problem with evo's imap - this is only done
once.

true... but it seems many do cache this info. Even GroupWise caches it
now I think :)

Evo already does cache-but-not-cache them in:
        ~/.evolution/mail/imap/<account>/folders/INBOX

It looks like only new headers need to be fetched each time.
