Have you ever let it finish? On my device, message bodies will not
download until the "receiving folders" bit is done.

That might be the problem.

You can't, unless you use POP instead of IMAP.

It shouldn't have to- it's checking those folders to see which e-

and will only fetch those.

I uspect that the Blackjack just needs some "quality time" with your
IMAP server to sort it all out, then subsequent send/receives will
likely be faster.
