You get this message when you try to close TB while a mail check is
active.

The message from TB might be system modal. Did you try to click Y or N
instead of crtl-alt-del? If you did and it didn't work, which Windows
version are you using?

20 minutes is long, I know of servers that release after 5 or 10
minutes. But this setting is up to the sysad, nothing you can do about
it.
