35142 - Mail Program doesn't check for new mail.

Status: VERIFIED DUPLICATE of bug 32449

(MailNews Core :: Backend, defect, P3)

Description

When I select the option to check mail every 'X' minutes it doesn't check the
mail.  Also, when you first open the main mail program, it doesn't check the
mail then either.

Hi. Thanks for reporting this.  We need to know: (a) What build you are using
(The build ID is in the lower right corner of the screen).  It is in the format
<year><month><day><hour>. If it is not a current build, you might want to
download a current Mozilla build and try again. (The problems you report do not
occur on my build from yesterday).  (b) Is you mail account a POP or IMAP
account?

Information from reporter: Tested on Build 2000.04.08.08, POP3 server; biff
still not working (also not after restart).

Biff for POP is working for me on Linux build 2000.04.08.08
