ThunderBird uses too many CPU resources

Since I’m working on a net book I find significant cpu resource usage by Thunderbird when i open the program. My CPU is AMD C-50.
I would be grateful for any suggestions for a less resource demanding email client. Will Evolution be an better alternative?

Interesting, thanks for sharing the solution. I’ve never had this issue. Maybe it depends on the type of e-mail account, like I use Gmail’s IMAP.

I am also using IMAP

After a while I decided to use Evolution as primary email software, Because it runs faster and smoother than Thunderbird.
