Thunderbird hangs several times per day. It's always when switching from back to the main window from another (e.g. compose) window. It's usually when trying to open another mail message in my inbox, and often right after sending a message. It hangs and mac gives me the spinning wheel of death. I've tried leaving it for several minutes see if it will recover, but it doesn't. In every case, I have to force-quit and restart. I haven't seemed to have lost any data in the process.

Any suggestions would be welcome.

I think I mentioned this earlier in the thread, but Paul's post triggered me to add this comment: TB hangs up when: (1) I just clicked "Send" on an email. (2) The email has not finished sending. (3) I use the Macintosh app switcher to switch to another app, almost immediately after I click "Send" on the email.

The Mac app switcher is when you click on Cmd-Tab and a list of open apps appears and you select the app you want to switch to.

I don't use the app switcher, but when TB hangs, it's often (maybe always) when I switch to another app by clicking that window (even the Finder by clicking the desktop), under precisely conditions (1) and (2) described by Clinto.
