Windows 10 Pro Desktop PC I am using Tunderbird for my gmail account. Version 115.10.1 (32 bit) Ever since there was a update (upgrade?) to gmail I can no longer use Thunderbird for my gmail. I don't know if it's at the Thunderbird end or the gmail end.

Here are the messages I recieve: First is on the actual email message and the second is a "pop-up" msg in the lower right of my screen.

Error on the composed message: "Your message was sent but a copy was not placed in your sent folder (Sent Mail) due to network or file access error. You can retry or save the message locally to Local Folders/Sent Mail-Rick.Reckage@gmail.com"

Error message at bottom right of Thunderbird: "Connection to server.imap.gmail.com timed out"

Thank you for any help to fix this. I like Thunderird so I contribute. I want to be abble to continue using it for gmail ifmpossible.

What is your anti-virus software?

I just have the Windows Defender And, Malwarebytes Premium

Try to start Windows 10 in safe mode with networking enabled.

Does the problem go away?

Windows safe mode disables anti-virus software. This is a troubleshooting step, not a solution.
