Well, it is almost what I want, but the check for new mail on start up and the
check for new mail every X minutes do not seem to work. I can only get mail if
I manually check for new mail. I'm unable to find a solution for those issues,
but I can find others asking about the same thing. I would assume that Icedove
does a pull of the mail spool, so it should be possible to do it on a schedule
or at start up, shouldn't it?
