Are you sure he's on dial-up connection? I might be wrong but my
impression is people don't usually say "disconnect from network"
when they mean disconnect the phone line which is currently not in
use.
But then, I don't know what's wrong if he's talking about LAN
connection. I tried to unplug my LAN cable and restart TB with
"check mailbox at startup" on and nothing happened. I could use it
as usual (no new mail, of course), and after I plugged it in TB
could send/receive mail again without having to quit and restart.
