90% of the time i am not online. when i am not online, sleeping for e,g, the email client does nothing (although it has been told to refresh every hour) whilst the omweather widget connects to the internet, refreshes and goes offline again.

this is exactly what i want the email widget to do and is most common sense. does nokia expect me to be online 24/7?? i might as well manually establish an internet connection every single time myself to check mail. i want it to do that automatically!

@schlumpfie - i will try that myself and answer you later in the evening.
