Hello Ben,

On Tue, 28 May 2002 23:10:18 +0100GMT (29-5-02, 0:10 +0200GMT, where I
live), you wrote:

I can think of one possible solution.
Disable the automatic mail checking by TB (or better to a low
frequency, say once every two hours)
Create a batch-file that calls TB with the parameter /Check* (that'll
make TB check all accounts)
Create a schedule in Windows' task scheduler (or whatever third party
scheduler you're using) to call the aforementioned batch-file in the
frequency you'd like. Since TB is already running the batch-file will
only start the mail checking.
Now when you're playing games you can deactivate the checking
schedule.
The disadvantage of this way when compared to your proposed feature is
that TB's icon won't change. That's why I suggested to put TB's mail
check feature to a low frequency, so that when you forget to activate
the schedule in the scheduler you still do some mail checking.
