# New features
- Improved speed, reduced CPU use and decreased GUI latency on receiving messages via POP3 and sending via SMTP
- /BENCHMARK_STARTUP_TIME displays time passed to start The Bat!, in milliseconds
# Improvements
- Improved speed of folder checking on MAPI
- Improved speed of checking for new message via MAPI in large folders
- Splash screen now uses default UI font
- Changed CSS length values for "ex" (was 1/1.3 of "em", now 1/2 of "em") and for cm&mm (was 1/2.52 of inch, now 1/2.54 of inch) - in accordance with https://www.w3.org/TR/CSS21/syndata.html#length-units
- If a tbuser.def file is larger than 500K, it is not loaded but renamed to .bak instead
- Plugins are now loaded at startup from a separate thread. In The Bat! version 5.0, has performed time-consuming startup routines (like loading of plug-ins, parsing of interface definition files) in parallel threads. The performance boost was noticeable even on old single-core CPUs, because disk and processor operations were running simultaneously; while on multi-core CPUs and multiprocessor systems the boost was even higher because computations could run in parallel, without one affecting another. In version 6.0, plugins werent loaded from a separate thread, but from the main thread. This is now fixed and plugin loading is now the same as it was in 5.0.
- Optimized IMAP work with multiple connections. When there are several idle connections, and there were need to work with another folder, The Bat! could use a connection that had INBOX selected; now connection with INBOX will only be used if no other connections are available
- dlNSpellLanguages is displayed when the user have selected too many languages for spell checking, in this case, the status bar didn't manage to display all the languages and there were a bug that other status bar items were hidden
