My goal is prevent my work from disturbing - I want to read / check new emails after my action (F5). I use IMAP server because different devices.

In server settings I have unchecked "check for new messages at startup" and "check for new messages ever xx minutes" but new emails still arrive.

I tried to set longer period (100 minutes) but no change.

I need active TB as source of information and also for sending answers, so switch to offline mode is bad choise.

I have disabled notifications but if I see new mails, my mind wants to see what is new ;-)

Please help me - any idea? Change some other setting? Some mailserver setting?

Thanks a lot

Toto se nastavuje jednotlivě v nastavení každého účtu (Pravoklik na účet - Nastavení - Nastavení serveru).

I know this setting but TB ignore it.

Neověřoval jsem to. Můžeš si ovšem na zkoušku udělat nový profil TB, jestli to bude fungovat nebo nebude.
