So first its not immediate unless I set very short (i.e. 1s) synchronization period, and second it makes unnecessary network traffic especially when synchronization period is short. Of course before 5.0 I had to use synchronization because former TB vesions didn't support IDLE mode. But now it works but not in the way I was expecting and not how other clients (i.e. Thunderbird) works. -- br, Zurek ________________________________________________________ Current beta is 5.0.0.133 | 'Using TBBETA' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html
