Is there an add-in for Outlook that will ask whether you want to launch
off-line or not when using POP mail accounts?

By the time the addin got the OnConnect event Outlook would already be
online or offline.

a command line switch would be better, but the only one I can think of that
comes close is /nopoll - this prevents the initial polling when outlook
opens, it will check for mail when the next scheduled polling time comes
along.
