Did you click on any of the newsgroups in the folder list? That will
also download messages.

The "Include this account when checking for new messages" means to check
the account when you click the Send and Receive button, use Tools, Send
and Receive All, or Tools, Options, General, Check for new messages
every xx minutes occurs or Send and Receive messages at start up.

I am subscribed to one NewsGroup which, as I keep as a standby, have
NOT ticked to "Include this account when checking for new messages".
However, occasionally it does download new messages. Why does this
happen please?

Thanks.
