That is a ridiculous long time. Is this an old machine?

You can make a sample for me like this (while it's hanging):

	sample MailMate 10 -f ~/Desktop/sample_mailmate.txt

The problem is likely related to the use of the “Premailer” inliner 
for CSS. It can be disabled (in the Composer preferences pane), but I 
wouldn't really recommend that. It appears it is much slower for some 
users than for others, but I've not found a pattern to this (and I 
cannot reproduce it).

There are things I could probably do to do some of the work on a 
separate thread, but when it can take 30 seconds to complete then that 
is not really a good solution.

Maybe also forward me one of the “worst” emails for this issue. I 
tend to get emails written in MailMate and maybe part of the problem is 
that I never reply to huge HTML emails...
