That was the behaviour I saw with TB prior to 3.85 and half the time
since then. It shouldn't check at startup unless you have the box that
says "check mailbox at start-up" selected on the options page. My
experience is that this bug appeared first in 3.85.
However, I asked about this once before and it didn't seem to be
happening to anyone else. It is becoming an annoying problem, not
major, but annoying, and so I wanted to see if anyone else had yet
come across it and whether someone knew how to fix it.
So it happens to at least two of us, but am I right in thinking it
happens all the time for you if you have periodical checking enabled?
