This is an interesting question. Two days ago I was not receiving mail and somehow I stumbled upon the fact that I was in the "offline" mode. Yet, I know I didn't change any settings. I too wondered if somehow a bug in mail had triggered the change. Coincidently, this happened after a day when my cable internet service had been frequently interrupted. Wonder if there was any connection?
