I don't really see that helping much. When opening the server, that may take time, so we should say "Opening imap.gmail.com". Then we probably open a different server. Then we issue commands to Gmail, which may hang, so we should say "Retrieving group data from imap.gmail.com". Then we issue similar commands to other servers. Then we wait for the data from Gmail, which will most likely block, so we should say "Waiting for data from imap.gmail.com". Multiply that by six servers, and you get a constant flutter in the minibuffer if none of these commands actually hand. -- (domestic pets only, the antidote for overdose, milk.) bloggy blog http://lars.ingebrigtsen.no/
