[Evolution] one request or two

[Charles "R. Tersteeg" <aa0na arrl net>]

1.  I'd like evolution to not say "There is no new mail at pop://whatnot mail server com "

2.  I'd like evolution to check for mail say every 10 mins?  or am I asking too much?

3.  a side note:  new mail is downloaded and first message is marked as read even though I have not read it 
or even looked in the folder where the filter put it.

Thanks in advance,
Chuck

p.s. where do i send feature requests?
