Adding TB Profile to Firewall Exclude "Safe"
Hello, VER: 128.3.0esr (64-bit)
Since I have updated to the newest version of TB, it is now a continiuous issue with "Not Responding". This is happening on three different computers with my mail accounts. I am using Godaddy (IMAP) as my mail service, and they now use Office 365. I did read in a post to add my profile to my firewall exlusion. This did seem to solve my issue, but I have since removed it as I am not sure it is safe. Is there any safety issue adding the profile to the firewall exclude.
Thank you, JR

You shouldn't mess with the firewall settings at all, unless you know exactly what you're doing.
It is recommended though to create an exception in your anti-virus software for the Thunderbird profile folder, so that the anti-virus real-time scanner will not scan it. https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/profiles-where-thunderbird-stores-user-data#w_how-to-find-your-profile
