This check-box says

To me this says "Don't check for new messages unless mailnews is
running", so in order to throttle mailnews you should check this option.
To be exact, it means "Don't check for new messages unless MailNews has
been opened at least once during the current session.". So it doesn't
matter whether you have a MailNews window open at any given time, but
only whether one had been open at any time during your current session.
In other words, MailNews keeps running in the background at all times,
unless it is not started at all. And if the above checkbox is *not*
checked, the check for new messages is *always* started.
