I'd like to be able to set a cron job so that I can start thunderbird, have it go online (the default setting for my t'bird is to start offline and I want to keep it that way), download messages from all accounts, then shutdown.

I can handle all the cron stuff, but what I can't find out is how to manage this from the command line with t'bird.

None of the documentation of command line arguments for t'bird I've found lists anything like that.

Are there undocumented options I can use?

thanks

yes, that's one of the pieces of documentation I consulted before posting my question, and it contains no information that helps me do what I want to do, hence my posting the question

If it contains no information that does what you want, then there is no command line switch that does what you want.
