I get "could not connect to server" on a regular basis. Sometimes
mails cannot be imported. For whatever reason. I really don't care,
because TB! will try again in 10 minutes.

As I said before, turn it off by default. Or at least, make it
turn-offable. I don't care for applications that give me red windows
for everything that is not a real problem. Avast gives me a red window
when it cannot download the new virus database. But only after a
pre-determined number of attempts, and that is appreciated. But if TB!
cannot download a mail now and will try again in 10 minutes, I see no
reason for a red window, it would unneceesarily interrupt the
workflow.
