Why does it take 5 seconds to read or delete an email in Thunderbird? [Mac]

I use Thunderbird for multiple email accounts. All of my gmail accounts are responsive, but the one account I have that uses a POP mail server takes 5 seconds or so for any action, such as read or delete, with the Mac color wheel repeatedly spinning.
