I've used TB extensively over the years and supported it in the workplace. One of this issues that can happen is that if you are using IMAP and you are moving large datasets around then the index files need to be rebuild. Often this is a problem because you have the folders opened on other devices / other users.
The net effect is that each starts polling and kills the other's indexing process and starts its own. Because you have such an extensive "backup" of emails the process can also take too long and time out (or you restart TB / PC to "fix" things).
If the problem is indexing on the IMAP server then you could try configuring the IMAP server to use different indexing or to use a different IMAP server program. Dovecot seems to have some reasonable options for indexing that don't waste much CPU time. If the problem is indexing on the client side then how do you have multiple clients conflicting? -- My Main Blog http://etbe.coker.com.au/ My Documents Blog http://doc.coker.com.au/
