I think I have noticed that the Linux version of Mozilla (.98)
automatically checks and reports on all my mailboxes, without even using
the line suggested above in the user.js file.
On the other hand, the Windows version does not seem to do so, at least
without the line in user.js. I'll try that line next and report back.
