thunderbird on win10 hangs forever on send when "Copying message to Sent folder" "Due to network or file access errors". SOLVED: caused by ESET
This happens only very occasionally and only noticed since installing ver 68

Hi,
In our case I found eventually that it was due to ESET having been installed with all its defaults on the PC’s - once I stopped ESET checking the email client all was well.

This is seen by some Mac users. No fix yet. See https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1242885#answer-1179483 which can help. Please post your results here.
Using mxtoolbox.com to test your smtp server indicates a timeout after 15 secs. If this is due to a problem with Macs mentioned in the bug report, I suggest in the meantime you point drafts to Drafts on Local Folder in the Copies & Folders section of Tools/Account Settings.
This is not mac it’s Windows 10 and is happening on Sent messages and drafts on a number of PC’s
Geoff, are you still seeing this issue?

I am not receiving or able to send emails using Thunderbird. I am using ATT.net and I get a server error message that my password is not accepted and to try again latter. This started on the 26th and it still not fixed. ATT said since my Yahoo account works it must me Thunderbird.
