Would it be possible that Thunderbird for Android checks for new mail every time the App is opened?
I know this behavior from other Email Apps, but with Thunderbird, I have to swipe down to check for new mails, instead of Thunderbird doing it automatically.

Please set or make an option to sync Thunderbird Android sync with the server on opening that app always, even if fetching mail is set to no schedule.

Reason: On my tablet, I intentionally have TBird set to not sync on a schedule as I use email on this device so infrequently I don't want it consuming power or data. But I wish it would sync when the program loads like the desktop software does.

[Thunderbird] Add the option to synchronise email when opening the application.

Some users do not want to receive emails on the phone at regular intervals; instead, we want to decide for ourselves when to check for new messages.
Currently, to do this, you have to set the synchronisation to never, open the application, and synchronise manually.
To simplify this process, it would be useful to have an option for #Thunderbird Android to automatically synchronise accounts when you open it

This idea is the same as the one linked below and would benefit from being merged. It would more accurately refect user interest in the feature.
