Up until March 19th my Thunderbird set up worked perfectly ans has done for 10 months. I have 2 email accounts, one via my ISP and one Yahoo. The one via my ISP is the one with the problem. I can send emails but I cannot receive them. My ISP just back healed the problem as being a Thunderbird issue. I have not made any changes to the setup.

My port is 110 on a POP3 mail account - is that correct? The outgoing SMTP port is 587.

Any thoughts or do I just delete this account and start again.

Thanks

You'll need to check with your provider about the correct server settings.
