Response time / functionality
I've been using Thunderbird for a very long time, supporting it's development with modest contribution. Until recently everything went smoothly when sending a message (I use 2 email accounts). However since a couple of weeks, there seems to be a delay when ever I send an email. Usually I was able to send a mail and keep working through my other mails. But this seems not to be the case anymore; Once I've clicked on sent (which is instant) I wanna to work/read other emails a message appears (TB does not reply anymore) and then only 5 seconds later I can keep scrooling through my list. It's strange. Any idea where this comes from. Many thanks for your answers. Stefan

Does problem change?
Hello Wayne, many thanks for your reply and sorry for being late in getting back to you. I tried the troubleshoot mode and it didn't change anything. As far as the microsoft safe mode is concerned I haven't tried yet as it looks more complex to do for my little knowledge ;-) on computing. I also eliminated old security apps but nothing changed. As I keep a lot of track record mails in my inbox in different folders, I thought that this may be causing the delay. Hm... I keep searching.Best regards. S
Put a number on what is "a lot"?
I find the trick to Windows safe mode is print the instructions.
