If I link to one of those messages in Gnus, close Gnus, and access the link from org-mode it finds the email in 13 seconds (8 seconds if Gnus is already open which is how I normally leave it running) If you are accessing your mail server on a slower network then that will adversely affect your response times. Mirroring your mail server with offline imap or some other tool and linking to the local mirror might help your access times. I've never used that myself but others have reported success with this. I also keep all of my emails except for SPAM which I clear out periodically (it seems I'm due for that again ;) Regards, Bernt
