Mail checker

[Peter Hägg <hagg peter kolumbus fi>]

Hi,

I've been playing around with the latest Garnome and I have to say that 
I really like it. Gnome2 has gone forward a big notch since beta3. 
Excellent work guys!I don't know if this is the right place to post 
this, but point me to the correct mailing list if not.

I'm a big fan of the mail checker applet but honestly, I really don't 
like the behaviour it has right now. If my mailbox (a pop3 mbox provided 
by my ISP) is offline while the mail check is done, the applet lets me 
know that it will disable the checks for now! This is not very 
appropriate IMHO. Now I have to check the 'check mail every...' manually 
every time I "guess" that the mbox is online.

My mbox is quite often offline from a minute to ten minutes so this 
happens a lot. I think the applet should only show a dialog that the 
mbox is offline, if even that. Mozilla Mail does the same nagging and I 
hate having those dialog boxes popping up.

Keep up the good work guys,

- Pete -
