Turning off all caching and synchronisation makes no difference. It's 
the first thing I did, especially as at work the connection to the mail 
server is fast and the home directory for my account is a network drive. 
(i.e. the caching and copying of e-mail is actually *SLOWER* than direct 
access.)

The same effect can be seen on all platforms TB3 runs upon and whether 
or not the users data is stored locally or on a network drive.
