Now its not a problem for the main account. An interesting aside is it seems to take as long for the mail gateway to do its checks as evo does. However on my work accounts, Ive found turning off junk mail online tests sped it up a lot. Other things that it sounds like you have tried. 1. added a stop rule to each filter 2. move the busiest filters to the top 3. use a compound filter rather than separate ones (this assumes there is less overhead doing this - subjectively it does seem quicker) 4. dont move/copy files to a remote mail account Most delays seem outside evo's control, though I acknowledge the filters themselves are not the fastest. Lastly, due to my inbuilt laziness, I use suspend2 each night, leaving evo running on suspend. I use the bios clock to start the machine up at 05:55 in the morning - when I stumble out of bed and stare blearily at the screen some time after the 6am alarm has gone off, the filtering is complete and my desktop is ready for use by the time the caffeine starts to work ...
