RR For example I think myrealbox.com is down right now

Excerpt from Myrealbox' message dd 19. July to all subscribers:

[...]
 We will therefore take the weekend of July 27 and 28 to upgrade our servers
 with newer and faster hardware.

 Please do not expect to be able to login to your account during the weekend
 of July 27 and 28. While we do not expect the downtime to be more than 10
 hours, it is safe to assume there will be additional service interruption
[...]

Cheers,

 Yes, I do now remember that message, but shouldn't there be a way
 to still not have that beep come up? I was hoping to not have to
 uncheck to have that mail checked while they are doing there
 service (then I have to remember later to turn the checking back
 on). I wouldn't even mind a dialog box within the Bat saying that
 it couldn't connect to a server, since I understand (and would
 want) some notification if it wasn't connecting. When I'm not in
 the Bat though I hate having to deal with the beep that comes up.
 Occasionally servers have some temporary difficulties and it's
 sort of a pain to have to go and set it to not check while a
 temporary problem is occurring.

This subject has come up before, and I have the same problem from time
to time.  The problem seems to be that TB has a fairly short timeout
of 30 seconds, which is not adjustable.  My ISP struggles to respond
within this timeout at peak times, so I got a lot of bleeps.

As the the solution, there is not one at present, other than turning
off the Windows sound for Exclamation.  The longer term ones will
hopefully appear in TB 2.0: either an adjustable timeout; or the
ability to turn off the sound.  You could always post a wish at
Ritlabs.
