I will watch more closely, but I have seen something similar, though
with shorter delays, with 3.58.0 installed from the Mageia rpm repos. I
had not thought much about it as it has been new, has not always
happened and I have slow internet connections. However, I think his has
only happened with 3.57.x and 3.58.0. I have two machines still running
3.48.3 where I do not recall this happening. And yes, the accounts are
IMAP.

If the opportunity arises, I will test and report.
