One, for each account I would set the check messages every n minutes to differing times. So one set of four mail accounts to check every 3 minutes, another set every 5 minutes, 7, 11, 13, 17. Since those are all prime numbers, there shouldn't be any overlap in times unless an account from a previous set doesn't finish before the next set starts. Once you have it set, exit TB, then restart TB. I'm just guessing at this, but I think it will work. Now, another thing to think about is aliasing 24 e-mail addresses to a single e-mail account. For instance, with my domain PCWize.com I have one mailbox account, but I have 50 or so e-mail addresses which point to that account. Then in TB, I just filter based on the Recipient, and it goes to whatever folder. i.e. editor < at > pcwize is the address I used for my newsletter for people to write to me at, and it goes to the same account as my tb < at > pcwize addresses, but they get filtered to different folders, because they are for different things. Unless you have a serious reason for having to have 24 separate mailboxes, aliasing is the way to go. -- Leif (TB list moderator and fellow end user).
