Hi,

Thanks for the tips, I'll give it a shot.
This machine is not using ZFS. Only one account but years of emails in many
folders, (however only a few are subscribed..) took me a minute to figure
out how to only show 'subscribed folders' but now those are the only ones
in the list.

I didn't specifically set up mysqld on this machine but it appears that it
is running, must have been a port dependency :) IMHO postgres would be
better. I'll check out the possibilities.

# ps ax | grep mysqld
 1114  -  I       65:35.03 /usr/local/libexec/mysqld
--defaults-file=/xj/waitman/.local/share/akonadi/
