Client: Thunderbird (actual version). Mail provider: Yahoo. Account: POP, Save messages on server. Problem: With slow internet connection Thunderbird downloads only first large message, then stops. New attempt to get messages gives downloading the same message. And so on. A lot of similar problems can be found on internet and mozilla forums, but there is no right solution. Applying recommendations (compact folders, deleting *.msf files, deleting popstate.dat file, deleting account, reinstall Thunderbird etc...) DOES NOT help. I've found some regularity: If message takes MORE than 30-40 seconds to download, then problems appears. If messages takes LESS then 30 seconds Thunderbird downloads messages without problems. Speed when downloading is about 40-50 KB (kilobytes) per second. Here coming another problem, but I think it's not related to Thunderbird: when I download messages from Yahoo through the Webmail, I have a speed about 200 KB (kilobytes) per second.

Clarification: - get new (first) message - attempt get new message again, which fails - go offline - go online - attempt get new messages

No, ON-OFF-ON-line didn't help. too. Here is what happen: 1. There are 2 messages on server, first large (>3MB), second "light" (simple text). 2. After starting Thunderbird I see "Downloading messages 1 of 2". 3. First message was downloaded. 4. Thunderbird stops to do ANYTHING. Netework activity is ZERO. 5. I go OFFline. Thunderbird asks if I want to download meesages which still stays on server, I answer - NO. 6. I go ONline. 7. Click on "Get Messages". I can see again the SAME "Downloading messages 1 of 2" in the Thunderbird's status bar. 8. First message was downloaded (AGAIN). 9. Thunderbird stops to do ANYTHING. Netework activity is ZERO. 10. Repeating steps 7, 8 and 9 infinitely times.

By the way, answer to your question "if you right+click folder and choose properties, what is the file size listed?" - Filse size is 2.0 MB.
