Hi, I did enter the details of an existing gmail account and kmail is syncing forever :( 

The account has plenty of email but any other mail client I have used so far did it within minutes, kmail looks like it might be ready in a couple of days despite using cca 800kB/s network width. Displaying "Syncing Folder Important (74%)" right now. And while it is doing that it is impossible to use kmail for anything else.

Is there some way to avoid downloading all the mail at once?
