72686 - Mail downloads IMAP message and all attachments before displaying the e-mail

Status: VERIFIED DUPLICATE of bug 48408

(MailNews Core :: Backend, defect)

Description

[Shawn Neumann]

Using W2K, Build 2001032004

Messages with large attachements need to be completely downloaded before the
text of the message is displayed on the message pane.  This is a real
preformance hit when viewing messages with very large attachments.  If the
attachements cannot be left until later, could this be progressively loaded?

This may be similar to http://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=48408.

Does this happen for you on a new profile?  I'm wondering why the Mime Parts on 
Demand feature is not functional for you.

note that mpod doesn't work on inline attachments.  Perhaps that's what this bug 
should be about (?0
