711148	2008-10-10 00:09:00	New Tbird installation clearing 3 pop accounts . Finally got all setup (bloody XTRA!!!) but now have a problem with the "Get Mail" button . Clicking it does nothing but clicking the down arrow and then an option does get mail . This is the only time I have seen this but googling shows others have had this problem going back years . Couldn't find a solution that works, though . The accounts are using the global mail boxes and the box to "Include this server for new mail" is checked . Darned if I can see any diffs from my good systems . I have also deleted the . msf files and tbird re-created them but this didn't work . Anyone have an answer?????	linw (53)

This is different from my other setups so maybe this is the complicating factor? Who knows! I couldn't see any solution from googling.	linw (53)
