           Summary: multiple downloads of mails with IMAP?
           Product: kmail
           Version: 1.11.2
          Platform: unspecified
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: kdepim-bugs at kde.org
        ReportedBy: michael.goffioul at gmail.com


Version:           1.11.2 (using 4.2.2 (KDE 4.2.2), Kubuntu packages)
Compiler:          cc
OS:                Linux (i686) release 2.6.28-12-generic

I just started to use kontact recently, I was using Evolution since then.
I am using an IMAP account and I noticed that kmail was significantly
slower to download/open some mails (more than 10x slower: evolution
loads a message in a fraction of a second, kmail spends several seconds)

While trying to figure out why, I enabled the full detail progress window
and noticed that kmail was processing multiple downloads in parallel
(see screenshot, up to 8 downloads). This seems to slow down the whole
message loading.

I'm not sure this is normal or not. If it is, is there any workaround?
