That seems a rather flippant remark considering that some of us may find a use for working *with* TB! while in an "offline" mode. I've already described my reasons for doing so in other messages. In any event, why not offer us a simple toggle switch? (without the need for the still rather clumsy work around switching between DUN and LAN mode as described by others here)? Even when I used Calypso for a short while a few years ago, there was an easy "pause all accounts" option for stopping periodic polling. Even that abomination OE has such a "work offline" switch. Why shouldn't TB! offer such a simple and convenient option? -- Melissa PGP public keys: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]&Body=Please%20send%20keys TB! v2.01.3 on Windows XP 5.1.2600 Service Pack 1
