Was Evolution busy with background processing?

Unlike Thunderbird, which often doesn't let you do much while
it is doing folder processing, Evolution still lets you
interact when it is doing some -- although some things might
not work (like dragging e-mails to a folder it is
processing).

I've seen an extrodinary amount of commentary on Evolution as
of late, and all of it is based on assumptions of how other
programs work.  Even Evolution's most advanced and unique
features are wholly misunderstood for the advantages they
provide.

Such as some of its background processing whereas Thunderbird
and other programs will be unresponsive when they are doing such.
