The is currently a nuisance, because Balsa has to cycle through the entire list every time, and even worse, I currently have one server (Yahoo, of course) which times out more often than not, at 30 seconds a pop (no pun intended). … > Maybe do what Mozilla (Thunderbird or Seamonkey-mail) does : > A button which opens a list, with option of checking all sources, or each source individually. > Really handy if expecting an email from a particular source, as well as for testing. > (Thunderbird replicates it in the page for each source, Seamonkey in a common area. Either way, checking any - or all - sources is always available.) That's possible! The "File => Get new mail" item and the associated "Check" toolbar button could pop up a dialog when multiple POP servers are configured, with a button for "Check all servers" and a list of servers for single-click checking of just one. It *could* also have a check-box for each server, showing whether it is currently enabled for new-mail-checking, and perhaps another button for "Check all enabled servers". But perhaps with this fine-grained control over checking, the whole enabling mechanism could be scrapped. Opinions?
