Thunderbird eventually stops polling
When my machine reboots (far more often than I'd prefer, tbh), Thunderbird starts automatically, and works fine. Messages sent and received. Eventually, some accounts just stop receiving.. afaik, I'm sending fine (although, I might never know), but I realize after a while that some accounts have not received for a few days. I run "Get Messages" on specific accounts - like waiting for a 2FA code, and usually they come in. But then I restart T-bird, and a flood of mails from (sometimes) 5 days ago arrive; missed invoice requests, Tax Dept, reminders, Customer replies, and (even more important, Dominos deal vouchers !)... very inconvenient.
'Anyone else experiencing this ?'
Network is fine, PC is online (trust me, I'd notice) Some emails arrive, usually in other accounts.
Tbird version: 140.14.1esr (64-bit) - but I think it's just doing an update now (esr channel) Accounts with issues are POP, my own domain, so I control everything.
Can't tell how often or after how long this occurs, as usually I am swamped with work once they come back online.. so I don't make records.
I will though.

That sounds like an antivirus that is dropping dead in the background. Norton do something similar with malformed emails and only on POP accounts.
But there is this 2FA thing I do not understand that reference at all. You should never use 2FA with a mail client, or at least Thunderbird as Thunderbird has no capacity of stop and ask for the 2FA code.
I don't use Norton; free AVG has served me fine for a decade or so. And I could be wrong, but I'm pretty sure it cannot interfere with T-bird.
2FA emails arrived IN Thunderbird FROM websites I am logging in to. Quite often they arrive fine.. but other emails are waiting somewhere, and only turn up when I restart the program.
Who are the mail providers for the affected account(s)??
