And I used to use Pine and Elm. The issue for the OP is not necessarily
reading the messages, but understanding why Evolution is behaving this
way. Using a different application does not solve the Evolution issue
he is seeing.

*I* have no problematic messages. What I'm saying is that Evolution /
WebKit doesn't use an excessive amount of CPU for me for any message
unless there is a clear reason why it should. In my own little way I
was trying to say I don't see the problem the OP is talking about.

The OP has asked a similar question in the past and he was given
various troubleshooting procedures to try.  Specifically Milan told him
how to use gdb to get a back trace to see where the issue is.
