For example, Network Manager uses D-Bus to tell programs when
your Internet connection is available and not, so your mail client goes
into offline mode rather than pointlessly trying to access your mailbox.
KDE4 uses it quite extensively, ust as KDE3 used DCOP.
So that's why when I am downloading something it doesn't check my
emails. I was always curious about that.
that shouldn't be the case - what email client are you using? Evolution
supports this (with the networkmanager USE flag*) but it goes offline
when all your interfaces are down, not just "in use" like heavy
downloading.
* actually the USE flag (networkmanager instead of dbus) and the
comments on it suggest that it talks directly to NetworkManager and not
via dbus, but I don't actually know.

I use Seamonkey 2 right now. You may be able to tell that by that pesky
line at the top. It appears Seamonkey has a roach or two rambling
around in there. Anyway, maybe it is just that the download is making
it slow enough that it just cancels the request when it is busy. I
dunno. I have noticed tho that I don't get emails for a while when I am
downloading something large but if I hit the 'get messages' button, then
I get a lot of messages that appear to be time stamped from a good while
ago.
Maybe this is just a coincidence or something.
