(Whiteboard: [nsbeta3-])
In 4.x and mozilla, the biff timer doesn't fire immediately when you launch mozilla. It waits until the biff interval has elapsed, and then fires. I think the right behavior is for biff to fire when the app launches, and on every interval after that. I assume we'll need some really small startup component to see if we need to run biff when the browser launches, without waiting for a three pane mail window.

Is this still an issue? I understand this bug as meaning "Mozilla doesn't check for new mail on startup, but waits until the biff timer has elapsed." If that is correct, then Mozilla does in fact check immediately on startup, for each account that has "Check for new messages at startup" selected in the Server Settings.
