It used to just zap off an email. Now it seems to take a few seconds to think about it before it goes. The green bar comes on and seems to sit for a while. [probably not ages .. just seems a while after being used to it going immediately.

Could be something with your email provider's server. What's your account type - POP or IMAP?
