Work offline mode means just that in Thunderbird. Thunderbird does not do per schedule checks for email for any accounts in offline mode. Any emails written while offline offer a 'Send Later' button, the "Send" button changes, which puts outgoing emails in a folder named Unsent. Closing TB with unsent email(s) will cause TB to prompt you about them and offers to send them before closing or to decline for now and close without sending. I much prefer Thunderbird 2.0 over Kmail. I have not used Kmail for many years. - -- David -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.5 (MingW32) iD8DBQFFuMixAO0wNI1X4QERAoRtAKCYiEOZWGtdrn2OvESUtu0rfwcpEwCgtRrR 1OJEwKy1ZSLHSYISm5X5ASs= =cppp -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
