New emails taking a long time to come in (sometimes hours)
Bug summary
Geary tends to take a long time to get retrieve and show new emails, sometimes even hours. Example: I woke up this morning with two emails in my work Gmail. I opened my laptop, no notification of new email. Opened Geary, nothing. A couple of hours later, I got a notification my phone of another email. Still nothing from Geary. A few minutes later, I opened Geary, and only then did all three emails come through. I had tried opening Geary multiple times in the interim time, but that didn't seem to help. (There's no way to manually refresh, so I thought opening Geary multiple times might be the closest thing to doing so.)
I think I've noticed this with my Fastmail emails as well. However, that might be related to #406 (closed). To be fair, the Gmail one might be related to that, as well.
