It should only take a long time for the first synchronization, after that=20
it's only the changes that takes time. The diskspace there really isn't=20
anything to do with.

Unfortunately there are places in the system that demands a disconnected=20
IMAP account for everything to work correctly, so I'm afraid that for now=20
the kroupware features means that you have to use the disconnected IMAP.
