That's abnormal. There is no deliberate reason for an upgrade to trigger such a download.

What I'm trying to say is that this is a bug, not an intended behaviour.

These are IMAP accounts, yes? Check the synchronisation and subscription.settings to see if they have changed, perhaps as a side-effect of the upgrade.

I understand your anger. But please, no more swearing.
