Hi Urs,

Thanks for your reply. I know about this feature and noticed it in 
action (didn't change the default value). The problem is in delay. 
If it would be possible to omit this delay, I could set monitoring 
for window with tin in my windowmanager (screen) and see, talking 
in other window on ekg (instant messenger, popular in my country) 
if any new news has arrived.

Greetings,
