No, but when a woman understands what the men do not, then there is one of two possibilities: 1) The original sentance was written by another woman. 2) Well, I lied, there really is only one possibility. I'm just being sexist and venting frustration. I love my wife and women in general. The fact that they are different makes them attractive and interesting. But that's a topic for a different mailing list :)
while I agree with Anne that is probably what is occurring (deferred imap) when you choose 'Work Offline' - deferred IMAP is similar to POP3 and it wouldn't seem to be much of a stretch to have the menu selection of 'Work Offline' to suspend all scheduled checking - whether IMAP or POP3.
I'll file a KDE bug. Either the behaviour or the name should be changed. Thanks. Hope that I offended noone of either sex. Dotan Cohen http://technology-sleuth.com/question/what_is_a_firewall.html http://lyricslist.com/lyrics/artist_albums/314/ll_cool_j.html
