Pmmail has gotten too slow to use!

Same here . . . I have more than 3,000 'sent' messages and it
will scroll through 1,000 as fast as 25.  Since it is only reading
a header file, and not messages . . . I don't see where it could
be a PMMail.  Now I'm using OS/2, so if it's a PMMail98 version
I would not chance a guess.
