I do this, I have it set to 9 minutes. I think I remember reading that
if you set it under 10 minutes it will stay connected and not ask for
your passwords each time ( it takes a little longer to do that)

mail management box? the mail center comes up every time it connects,
then disappears when it is finished. On my system it stays minimized, so
it never gets in my way.

I have it set to delete mail on the server, so when I watch the
connection center, it shows deleting mail on server, this does add a bit
of time, but on cablemodem, it is negligible;) , except on Friday nights
when TBUDL throws 100 messages at me!
