When you hit the reply button, online or offline, the window to compose your response takes up to 50 seconds to show up. And when it does, it still seems frozen, as you cannot see the words you type, only after a few more seconds. Something is clearly wrong. Is it possible to roll back to the previous version until this bug is fixed, please? As it is, Thurderbird Thunderbird 52.9.1 (64-bit), on OSX El Captain is quite useless. Many thanks.

Does this also happen when starting a new message from scratch? Or just replies? Does the reply have an image, as described in https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1477389 ?

Also, please start thunderbird in safe mode - https://support.mozilla.org/kb/safe-mode-thunderbird Does problem go away, or get better?

Thanks for your response. In the interim, I had shut down Thunderbird. And this time, unlike the last, waited for a long time before starting it up again. And the problem is resolved. Not a clue what happened there, but I'd like to know. Only thing different that had happened during this hiccup, on this almost never shutdown machine, was a Java update. Could this have had an impact?

I would think not java related, but rather not speculate. Plus, might be too soon to say it is permanently gone :)
