Error-Message from Mail-Server on Startup with open Password-Manager
When i start TB the Password-Manager ask me for the Main-Password. When i do not write the Main-Password directly with in 60 Seconds, i get an Errormessage from the Mail-Server! Why connects TB to the Mail-Server before i write the Main-Password in the Password-Manager Inputmask? Prefs: "mail.startup.enabledMailCheckOnce", false "mail.server.server1.login_at_startup", true "mail.server.server1.check_new_mail", true "mail.server.server1.check_time", 30 "mail.server.server1.download_on_biff", true "mail.server.server1.headers_only", false "mail.server.server1.leave_on_server", false Pic 1 is direct after starting TB Pic 2 is after 60 seconds

I guess this is the effect you described:

You can try to install this add-on. https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/thunderbird/addon/startupmaster/
This should prevent Thunderbird from trying to access the account prior to entering the master password. Note, it's by no means a security measure.

The password prompt is for the master password. The master password protects any account passwords you told Thunderbird to remember. Thunderbird cannot retrieve new mail without access to the account password. See http://kb.mozillazine.org/Master_password

You're right christ1. But how do you explain to me the second screenshot? TB tries to download new messages without a master password!

With an add-on to patch a bug I think is not a good idea! I consider this behavior a bug and hope that it will be repaired by this post soon.
