NOT loading messages in Tbird

I think there is a way to have avoid Thunderbird getting messages on loading.
But I can't find it.

 

can you be a bit more specific? I have no idea what you are referring to.

 

To set when thunderbird checks for messages or not! open TB. click on your account name,then in the window that opens, under accounts, click on view settings for this account, Then server settings, you should find what you are looking for! If I understand your post correctly

 

thanks Sutsu


I knew it was there and I was looking under Tools/Options (where it should be, I would think.

Anyway, I found it and did it

 

I had not understood. And, it should be under Account settings, because it is an account by account preference (I have 11 separate mail accounts, and I have a variety of settings for each).
