If there is any such change, I would hope someone (here?) knows about it! Before, it would check updates via the proxy server just fine. I have turned that off because I don't want our users to do updates, we roll them out after testing, in a weekend automatic job. And this issue shows that testing really is required. I'm sure we would get questions and complaints when it would be rolled out like this. Until now, there is no evidence that it is a phone home problem, though. The only evidence I have is that it takes about as much time as a connection timeout would, and it does not use CPU during that time. However, it is also clear that the time depends on the number of .msf files in the ImapMail tree, so it is not likely to be a single connection, it looks more like a delay while processing each .msf file. (and those files are on the local disk) _______________________________________________ support-seamonkey mailing list support-seamonkey@lists.mozilla.org https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/support-seamonkey
