   Howdy Mark,   
      
   ml> there are a couple of ways to tell t-bird to get the messages in the   
   ml> groups... one is to use the online/offline button in the bottom left   
   ml> corner of the t-bird window... when you click it to go offline, it   
   ml> will then download all the messages...   
      
   BTW, I didn't know about that "button". I only saw it as an indicator of   
   being online, ie. connected to the ISP.   
      
   Thanks for the hint. It's much easier to press that "button", than to   
   have to go to the settings menu to do the same thing.   
      
      
   Best regards,   
      
   Holger
