Thunderbird does not read emails in sleep mode on a mac

I recently upgraded to a Macbook Pro running Mojave 10.14.6. I am running Thunderbird 68.1.1 (64-bit).

When my Mac goes to sleep, Thunderbird does not read email. On my previous Mac, when I resumed a session from sleep, email was already read. Now, I have to wait or manually load it.

I set the various parameters people recommend: wake for Wifi access, automatically read messages every minute, etc. They are not working.

There must be a workaround for this?

does your mac tur off the network card to save power while asleep? Windows does and this stops ALL network activity from occurring. Windows offers a wake on network option. Perhaps apple have something similar.

I have set the Mac settings so that it should wake up when there is network activity. This is a standard Mac setting.

Something has changed with Mojave or TB in how it interacts in sleep mode. I am using the same settings I previously used on my MacAir under Mojave.
