OK, before applying this patch I could not get either fetch new headers
on startup or fetch new headers and bodies on startup to stay selected
after closing prefs or exiting Pan and restarting it.

After applying the patch fetch new headers on startup stays selected OK
but now I can't get the fetch new headers and bodies on startup to stay
deselected when closing prefs or exiting Pan. I haven't tried turning
off both and closing and reopening prefs yet.

I take it this was not intended behaviour Charles....
