And these are exactly my requirements too, and it works the way you
describe. Automatic periodic checking when online, no check when
off-line.

Under Account / Properties / Network make sure that none of the
accounts has [ ] Use Account-specific Network Settings checked.
Because that overrides your general settings and would indeed connect
automatically each time.
