Bug?
Do you have any third-party plugins installed? If so, which ones?
no
Is the issue related to a specific email provider (Gmail, Exchange, etc.)?
I only have gmail accounts
Is the issue reproducible with a particular attachment, message, signature, etc?
The problem I am encountering is similar to #3232. My Nylas-mail fetched the most recent several hundreds/thousands of emails and then hanged without being able to make any progress over the past several hours. Occasionally new error will show up in the console, such as
internal/process/warning.js:24
(node:3158) Warning: Possible Event Emitter memory leak detected. 51 trigger listeners added. Use emitter.setMaxListeners() to increase limit
or
error-logger.js:101
APIError: Error checking sync health: Bad username or password(...)
but during this period I never touch the account setting so I am totally clueless why this error message would show up. Also, Nylas-mail still does receive new incoming emails, but syncing of the older emails never completes, and the point where Nylas started to hang varies (I did multiple installation/uninstallation on multiple platforms).

I saw the same issue with 2.0.15 on Ubuntu 16.10. I was hoping the 2.0.28 update would fix this but it seems to have the same issue. I have 2 gmail/gsuite accounts with a fairly large number of messages (the bigger has nearly 100,000) and syncing in N1 worked fine but Nylas Mail (2.0.x) series runs into this issue.
One symptom I noticed is a LOT of disk activity with very little network activity. I see the disk activity from Nylas Mail writing 5-10MB per second while there is barely a trickle of data over the network. It looks like it is rewriting the whole mail history for each email it downloads, or something along those lines.
@franzos Thank you. Didn’t realized it.
