According to the manual, the emailer, by default, attempts to do a
send-and-receive daily, but you ought to be able to change this. It
*also* calls a freephone number in the middle of the night to update its
adverts; you can't turn that off, and if you prevent it from doing this,
it'll stop working. And then as a third thing there's the caller-ID
trick tells it whether there's email waiting, which doesn't cost anything.
