With a modern machine and the latest versions, it's not too bad and responds 
quicker then kmail-1 did. With the old version, I often had kmail become 
unresponsive when synchronizing the email.

I didn't loose any emails, but that is more likely related to the emails being 
stored on an imap server, rather then being lucky.

I really don't see the point of forcing mysql as a backend. Sqlite would have 
been a better choice.
