terminal top showing CPU usage

Using Claws-Mail 3.8.0 on Linux Mint XFCE 13 64bit

I have 2 IMAP accounts. Both of them show same behaviour: when I clic on it, claws-mail seems to retreive emails but it does nothing and CPU sticks at 100% usage (see attachment). I first thought it was because the IMAP server was not responding but since it is the same on both IMAP accounts I would suspect something else.

I will. Just for confirmation. I worked all day long without any trouble; the pb just occurs a few minutes ago without any particular reason: it got stuck on "opening send folder". Note that I've been using Claws-Mail for a quite while (I just quit my Mint Isadora with Claws-Mail 3.6 on it) and never faced such an issue.

Well, I go and get latest release right away.

ok, I've just upgraded from PPA to 3.9.1 (3.9.1-1ubuntu1~ppaprecise3)

Did not reboot; just shut and restart Claws and no hang so far (seems even a little faster).

Cool. Now let's see how v3.9.1 behave in the next couple days...

Using claws-mail 3.9.1 for almost 1 week now and did not experienced any CPU hang. Seems to me that upgrade did it. I am sooo pleased !
