Apologies for the double post. Thunderbird gave me the impression the
post didn't go out as it was still sitting in the drafts folder. I
should have been more patient and checked the sent folder instead. In
any case, I want to make a further comment below.

Of course, the idea isn't to wait for the beep and go around a second
time; the aim is to get close to it on the first pass. The beep is to
let you know you've muffed it and also gives you a guide for the second
attempt which can be made simply by keeping the button depressed.
