As of yesterday morning Thurnderbird won't download new message from comcast or gmail. It looks like it is trying to in first tab but just spins forever. Looks like it tries to at the bottom but nothing comes thou. Can still write and send emails out but it a message that was deliver but copy failed. Then error message saying Your message was sent but a copy was not placed in your sent folder (Sent) due to network or file access errors. You can retry or save the message locally to Local Folders/Send email addres. Can't figure out how to fix this without uninstalling and reinstalling again.

Thank you in advance! Stephanie
