Cannot access profiles on network drive with Thunderbird >60.7.2
Dear all,
we have a problem with all Thunderbird versions released after 60.7.2. We are storing our mail profiles on a network drive, which never was a problem before. After upgrading our clients to 60.8.0, the profile wasn´t loaded anymore. It was like using Thunderbird for the first time.
After downgrading to 60.7.2 everything was fine again. So I tried in the last months Thunderbird 60.8.0, 68.0, 68.1.2 and 68.2.0, but all had the same problem.
What´s the issue here? Honestly I don´t want to stuck on Thunderbird 60.7.2...
Regards Mathis

I am aware of only two reported issues
https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1512940 - Thunderbird hangs, if the last attachment comes from network share, and the network is broken
https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1512812 - Handling of mapped network drives in Windows changed in TB 60: Drive letter now resolved to UNC path for account directory prefs affecting profile
Exactly what device, and what protocol are you using?
Wayne,
thanks for you reply. The client PC´s are all Windows 10 x64 Education, 1809 resp. 1903. The network drive is a simple SMB share hosted on a Windows Server 2019.

I like that way of thinking.

WHich protocol specifically - SMB1, 2, 2.1, 3, 3.02, 3.1.1, etc?

Can you test a lower version - smb 3.0?
Unfortunately, not.
It would need to be a patch that landed in these checking ranges. Nothing jumps out at me, but I haven't done a thorough reading
