I am using TB 115.9.0 on a Windows 7 Lenovo laptop in pop3 mode. I use AVG (which I know has caused a lot of problems).
I have over 150,000 emails in various directories...all downloaded from AOL and an older eudora installation.
TB had been working fine for the past 60 days. Before that, I'd had a problem with slow or no downloading of emails which was solved by unchecking the SCAN SSL connections in the AVG geek area.
So everything has been working great for a period of time.
Today, my computer battery ran out of juice, and the computer shut down.
When I got back to the office, and plugged it in, I noticed TB was NOT downloading any emails. I went into panic mode (thinking "here we go again!...who has time for this?") and immediately turned OFF the AVG....thinking that would solve the problem (as it had a few months ago).
When I restarted the system, it began loading ALL 89000 emails currently in my AOL account.
I've reloaded TB (saw this in someone else's post); tried starting TB in safe mode (had the same problem); and have restarted numerous times. Result each time: downloading 1 of 89.000 emails.
Any idea how to reset things so I am NOT downloading 89000 emails again?
Thanks in advance.
