Automatic reload of inbox?

[ardiederich]

I'm testing out ZCS as a replacement for Merak Mail. I've seen that with the mail client up in firefox 2.0.0.3 on windows xp the Inbox doesn't reload -- I have to click 'Get Mail' button for the inbox list to refresh.

Is there an option for the Inbox page to refresh for new mails, similar to how Gmail refreshes the list periodically?

Thanks for the help.

Strange, mine refreshes by itself periodically.

I think it's every 5 min or so by default, but there's a setting for refresh under Options --> Mail --> Polling interval.

Hmm, it's working now. Could easily be user error. Thanks for the tip on the polling interval.

Does yours actually refresh the message list or just the message count? Mine just refreshes the message count but I have to hit Get Mail to actually show the new messages in the inbox. I've been trying to summon the courage to submit an RFE.

My client refreshes both the message list and the message count on a regular basis.
