same introduction. :) Here we go:

checking new mail with my patched, and the original as well, 
IMAP-behaviour is somewhat strange. In Settings, IMAP-checks are 
enabled for all folders, and check on startup is enabled as well. But 
balsa
- won't check the IMAP-folder at startup at all
- in an initial phase doesn't react to the "receive new mail"-button, 
but doeas it after a while
   (I tried to get some reproducable scheme, but it's somewhat weired)
- reacts perfectly to the auomatic background check, which I set to a 
minute now
This results into the situation, that I'm opening balsa and doing some 
other things for a minute, until the first auto-check occured. It's 
just an annoyance... but nevertheless. Not sure if and how to file a 
bug-report.

Looks like the check-methods are somewhat out of order. Shouldn't be 
one main check-method handling all POP- and IMAP-accounts, and 
shouldn't this one be called when clicking and on autochecks? First I'd 
say, the button only checks for POP-boxes, but after the first 
auto-check, it will check the IMAP-account explicitly... where does 
that change come from? Not to forget check on startup, which would be 
the most important thing. :)
