How often does Thunderbird check for emails? I have several email accounts and just wondering how frequently Thunderbird searches for new emails. I realize you can manually check for emails.

Thank you for your time and effort.

Chosen solution

It checks for emails as often as you ask it to. Hamburger (top right)/Account Settings/Click on 'Server Settings' under each email account and select the time on the right.
