Is TBird having *all* Windstream.net email accounts get a "The mail server for account / responded: Unrecognized command: ID" popup?
Is it caused by the Windstream.net email server refusing to reply back with a credential validation sequence making TBird think the server isn't willing to provide a valid ID or suchlike? Is there anything I can do to keep it from preventing a brief refusal to communicate with each mail folder I try to open/read on the server making a morning mail check a multi-cup process? :)

P.S. I am an old '92 type FidoNet origin networker. I don't know all my new HTML/Javascript stuff, so the reason I was asking about the verification code sequence stuff was it seemed like something we used to use as part of the file transfer protocols validation after we stopped advancing from X/Y/ZModem at 300/1200/2400 baud modems. I know I'm an old timer. Just try and forgive me.
There does appear to be an uptick in windstream customers with issues. The question I can not answer is why.
However POP, which I understand is all windstream offers in the way of mail is a simple contact the server and download the mail protocol so changing folder should not issue a command. Searching Google I see that there is IMAP and instruction for "following" the conversion here. So I think the best approach might be to check you account settings as thy stand.
