Groupwise Client in Caching mode sometimes stops refreshing Mailbox

Hi.

This is an old, ongoing problem that seemingly comes and goes over various versions, and I'm unable to find the culprit, so I though I'll ask here.

I'm running Groupwise in Caching Mode 99% of the time, as I'm exclusively working on laptops.
Every once in a while, the Groupwise Client will suddenly start to no longer refresh the Mailbox when new mails arrive. It's not about syncing the caching mailbox, it does that just fine.
What it does not in this state, is to ever show new mails in the mailbox on it's own, not even after hours, and after receiving dozens of new mails.

To refresh the view of the Mailbox, I can either switch to a different Folder, and back, or hit F5 manually.

This behaviour survives restarting the groupwise client, and also rebootig the whole machine. It also exists on various different machines. Yet again, it usually just goes away on it's own, often after a few days of it driving me nuts, and suddenly it's gone again.

Anybody else seeign this, and maybe even knows what possibly causes it?

    I've seen this happen particularly on the laptop of my resident trouble-user (you know the one, to whom the most bizarre and never-before seen computer calamities occur on a near-daily basis), but I've also had it happen on my own laptop on occasion.  However I don't recall it ever surviving restarting the groupwise client though and certainly not surviving restarting the computer.  The symptoms are the same though - the inbox only updates if the user switches to a different folder or calendar and back, or by hitting F5.  I've no idea what causes it.
