"RETR command did not succeed" is the message I receive when I go into my Thunderbird email. I cannot receive any new messages. How do I correct this?

That used to be a specialty of Yahoo.

Perhaps disable email scanning in your antivirus program and see if that helps as otherwise you stand a real chance of getting all the mail on the mail server downloaded again to clear the block.
