I meant how do you know the time is spent filtering (rather than say
polling the server or downloading mail)? I have a fairly long list of
filters (all of them either move mail to folders or just throw it away)
and have never noticed them taking any time at all. However I poll my
mail servers automatically at fixed intervals, so how would I know?
