The connection to my home IMAP server is temporaly unavailable. If this happens and I press "GetAllMail" the atempt to connect to IMAP fails. Using a POP account there is a checkbox "include in poll". If IMAP had this too it were fine for me. So I get a timeout everyime I press "GetAllMail". Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. setup IMAP account 2. disconnect IMAP server 3. press "GetAllMail" 4. wait'n suck... Actual Results: Message box telling me what I know about: No connection to IMAP server. Expected Results: Silently skip IMAP when polling mail. Optinal only when disabled by checkbox. The IMAP server is actualy my backup and main eMail memory. NonSpam(tm) eMail will be sorted in mail boxes on the server by hand. It is only a destination, not my eMail downlink(poll).

(In reply to comment #0) > Using a POP account there is a checkbox "include in poll". This is true for POP accounts that are deferred to another account or to the global inbox. POP accounts that have their own entry in the Folder pane (like IMAP accounts do) have the same issue if they should be turned off. xref bug 137298; fixing that bug would provide a simple solution to this problem.

Bug 563334 is same issue, but with better description and a lot more information provided by WADA (workarounds etc.). -> duplicate of bug 563334 (In reply to zug_treno from comment #2) > Duplicate of bug 274351 -> bug 301228? not really, because bug 301228 is only about allowing users to change the default between Get all and Get single acct.
