Comment:

 The process has improved significantly. The progress bar fills
 continuously now. The problem with the weird labels is still present
 however. I believe it happens when you reach more than 1000 mails. With
 the Tracker folder open, you can see that mail_daemon downloads in batches
 of 250 mails (first 250 partial, then body as per the setting). When there
 are 1000 mails in the folder, the progress bar label switches from x/12xx
 to something like "x/0 mails", with x being a small number, possibly
 restarting at 1. It appears that it was downloading the mails 751-12xx,
 and the wrong label appeared after fetching the partial mails 751 to 1000.
 The progress bar was correct the whole time, only the label is the
 problem.
