hi!

i am not exactly sure what i am talking about.  the thing i know for sure is this:

1. i start downloading my mails.
2. i see "Deleting 1%.. 2%.. 3%.." (for example for 10 seconds)
3. after that i see "Download 100/1.. 100/2.. 100/3... mails" (for example)

my idea is to change the order of the last two like this: 1. 3. 2.
