Except that the next time I started TB! it checked for mail on all

less prevalent.

 Okay, so that's three of us.

 I thought that it was me at first because one could argue that if an 
 interval was set then the account should be checked automatically on 
 startup and thereafter at the interval specified.

 For me I expected the first check to be carried out after the first 
 interval.

 Then if I wanted a check on startup I could ask for that.

 What do you think?

 However, I asked about this once before and it didn't seem to be
 happening to anyone else. ...

 So it happens to at least two of us, but am I right in thinking it
 happens all the time for you if you have periodical checking enabled?

It happens here also. We have three accounts; on all three periodic
checking is enabled, check on startup is disabled. Still, TB! checks
mail on all three on perhaps one startup in five.

Okay, so that's three of  us. To paraphrase Alice's Restaurant

he's really crazy and they won't take any notice of him./

And if two people do it, in harmony, they may think they're both weird
and they won't take notice of either of them.

And if three people do it! Can you imagine three people walkin' in,
singin' out that there's a problem? They may think it's an

TB erroneously checks mail at startup

2006-12-23 Thread Robin Anson
Batfolk, 

I have all of my accounts set to NOT check mail at startup, and yet on
about 50% of the times I start TB, all accounts check. This started
with version 3.85, when I set ONE account to check at startup, and yet
about 50% of the time, all of them checked. So I turned check mail at
startup off, however the problem still occurs. Upgrading to 3.95 has
made no difference.

Does anyone else experience this?

Do you have TB! set to check accounts automatically at intervals?

I used to have no check on start up, followed by check at 15min; and 
15min after start up my accounts would then be checked automatically.


After a recent upgrade this changed so that even with check on startup 
off TB! would still check accounts on startup if a check interval was set.


So I turned them all off and check when I remember! ;)

Well, that's similar, except that mine doesn't ALWAYS check on
startup. It only does it about 50% of the time.

That was the behaviour I saw with TB prior to 3.85 and half the time
since then. It shouldn't check at startup unless you have the box that
says check mailbox at start-up selected on the options page. My
experience is that this bug appeared first in 3.85.

However, I asked about this once before and it didn't seem to be
happening to anyone else. It is becoming an annoying problem, not
major, but annoying, and so I wanted to see if anyone else had yet
come across it and whether someone knew how to fix it.

So it happens to at least two of us, but am I right in thinking it
happens all the time for you if you have periodical checking enabled?

OK, well I have three accounts on my setup and it definitely exhibits 
this behaviour, and has done since 3.85.
