I receive emails fine thru Thunderbird and then I stop receiving emails. I then have to restart my mac and then Thunderbird starts receiving emails again. Why?
I receive emails just fine on Thunderbird and then all of a sudden Thunderbird stops receiving emails. I receive emails on my iphone & ipad but none appear on Thunderbird. If I then do a restart on my mac, I then start receiving emails in my Inbox again on Thunderbird. Seems like every couple days this happens and the only fix is to restart my computer. Any help?

Does turning your phone and pad off reset things? Do you use anti virus?
I do not use anti virus. I am always able to receive emails thru my iphone and ipad, just not on my mac using Thunderbird - that is when I have to do a restart on my mac to begin receiving emails again. Then Thunderbird receives emails for a few days and then quits, thus the need for another restart. Any other thoughts?
Yes again. Does it restart is you turn off your apple products which when left to their own devices will consume all available connections to the mail server.
Why is it so hard for people who buy apple to understand it is not perfect and can be the cause of problems elsewhere.
I can certainly try to turn off my other apple products so see if that solves the problem. Thank you for the suggestion.
