Thunderbird won't collect messages
Thunderbird was working fine all day, then suddenly in the late afternoon when I told it to check mailboxes I got the usual messages along the bottom of the window saying which account it was looking at but instead of collecting the messages it stopped doing anything and sat with the green box full but no messages. I have tried shutting down the program and restarting but no result Also shut diwn computer and restarted but still no luck. I can send messages but not receive.

Sorry, but this doesn't help. Thunderbird is working fine on another computer, it is just on one where this has happened so it is not a problem with the ISP and the settings are correct, I have checked, nad the same ones work on my wife's laptop. Could it be a Windows update that has messed something up?- My Mailwasher has also stopped working on the afected computer.
Please post your Troubleshooting Information.

From the accounts listed in the Troubleshooting Information, which is the one you're having problems with?
I was having trouble with all of the accounts. Thunderbird wouldn't receive from any of them. it just froze in the middle of checking accounts. Sometimes it told me there were messages but they didn't download. However, suddenly everything is working again. No idea why as i haven't done anything to the machine except switched it off and left it for a few hours while i was out. I guess we'll have to write this one off as one of the mysteries of computers!
