The strange thing still is that a) Pegasus Mail does not do so when set
to "No explicit dialling support", and b) that TB does also *not* do so
when sending mail (see above).

Not sure.  TB would just have to act identically when sending and when
retrieving mail, that's the only thing I need.

Any ideas?  Any comment from the TB developers (Stefan!)?
