Actually this is problem that has been encountered before, but for
some reason it never generated much useful discussion on the list. I
guess not too many people can afford to leave their Internet
connections on long enough to verify this bug. If you don't mind
running a couple of tests, someone had previously mentioned that when
they left TB running for more than 36 hours straight, then TB would
stop checking mail automatically. Unfortunately I can't test this
myself, but if you can verify this behaviour, it might be worth
reporting to the developers.
