Hi there, how are you?

I've been having problems with Hotmail for Thunderbird for the last many months. I have added, re added accounts, checked many times. First off its very slow to sync, extremely, takes days, hours, the connection times out a lot, tried decreasing the tcp connections, no go. Looked online a lot. nothing.

Secondly, when collapsing the hotmail account, all the emails disappear and has to resync. Same thing happens when opening thunderbird at random, tired of it I started using hotmail in windows live mail.

Any fix for this please? Use auto settings and manual, Imap.

Thank you
