  How does one access the CC?

The progress bar gave me nearly all the information I wanted - its
only problem was that mail retrieval for multiple accounts layered
progress bars on top of each other so that you couldn't see what was
going on for each account. The connection centre addresses this issue
but now it gives far more information than I need and is just too
intrusive. I'd prefer a single small progress bar and an option to
check accounts successively rather than simultaneously but that's just
IMO! :)

I would have to agree on this. Because I manage a large number of
administrative accounts for a couple of maildomains, I have more than
15 accounts defined. Since the mailchecks for these occur virtually
simultaneously (didn't feel like spreading the time-intervals), TB!
would previously completely clutter my taskbar with progress windows
making it impossible to click other windows for as long as this
lasted.

Now the process of retrieving mail is much cleaner for me, no more
cluttering and that makes it all much more comfortable.

Hi IronHand,

 2. On checking multiple accounts in previous versions, it would
 sometimes fail to retrieve mail from an account. I would cancel
 retrieval after oking the warning message, select the account and

 cancel the download, the retrieval can't be cancelled, no matter what
 option (Delete task or Abort) I try in the Connection centre. I can

I Yes. And I wonder what's the difference (Delete/Abort)?

I didn't found ay difference... Both didn't anything, or waited until
the connection to server was established or i one case crached TB... I
couldn't start it again until system restart...

 still navigate around the program but I can't get rid of the retrieval
 task. If I try to close the whole program down, it hangs completely
 and I have to ctl-alt-del to get rid of it.

I Well, it's because it's in the developement stadium (Connection Centre).
I I also think, that it would be nice to let user choose: Old progress
I window or CC.

I agree...
