Check Mail At Startup -- still broken
I've asked about this before without getting any responses, but since the issue still exists in 4.2.36.4, I thought I might as well mention it again. 4.2.36.4 is the newest version I can find, but I'm not sure if it is current or not, since the version numbers being discussed on the beta list are so varied, it is starting to get confusing. Anyway, here's what is happening: The Check Mail At Startup setting has been flaky for at least the past few builds. TB is ignoring this setting when it is started as part of my boot/auto-logon sequence. But, if I /restart/ TB by itself (i.e. without restarting Windows), then the setting is respected. I'm starting to think that the Periodic Checking Each setting might be triggering immediately when TB starts at boot time. If so, then TB may be honoring the Check Mail At Startup setting in spirit, but not in fact due to an immediate check being performed by the periodic checker. Or it could be something else, but either way, it is slightly disturbing to have TB ALWAYS display a fetch error when my computer reboots. This is obviously not a critical thing, it would just be nice for the settings to do what they're documented to do. -- Steven Vallière | tb 4.2.36.4 | mailto:the...@e-visions.com -- If you didn't write it down, then it didn't happen. -Larry Zana Current beta is 4.2.33.9 | 'Using TBBETA' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html
