Hi. We noticed that the troubleshooting information was missing from these questions. In order to better investigate this issue, we may need to request a little more non-personal information.

Please add the troubleshooting information to your post as well as the results of the following troubleshooting steps:

  • Finding the Troubleshooting information
  • Does Thunderbird work in TB Safe mode (see Thunderbird Safe Mode)?
  • What is the Thunderbird version?
  • What operating system do you use (e.g. Windows 7)?
  • Do you use anti-virus and firewall software? What is the version?
  • Do you use Thunderbird add-ons?
  • Who is the email provider?
  • Who is the internet provider?
  • What is the exact error message?
  • What steps did you take right before this happened?

With this information we can better investigate and get a better idea of what may be causing the issue.

Please post back with this information and any other questions you might have.
