Good afternoon!

Thanks for the great customer!

We have several computers on a local network without internet access. There is a problem in Thunderbird 143 - files are downloading slowly. POP3 and IMAP are the same. From several tens of seconds to one and a half minutes, 11 files from the letter were downloaded, totaling 20 MB. There is such a feature - if you disconnect the network adapter, the problem practically disappears. There was no such problem in the Thunderbird 115 version. The Em client and Mailbird clients were also installed for the experiment - they also do not have such a problem.

The mailbox is small and contains 20-30 almost empty emails.

Tell me, please, what can be done about it?

Sincerely, Yaroslav.

Did you skip from 115 to 143?

Hello! When installing the Mozilla Thunderbird client version 142+, this problem occurs. Could you please tell me what Thunderbird settings can prevent or significantly reduce the speed of downloading attachments to a local computer? Is it possible to disable any unnecessary features using the Thunderbird settings editor? Our Thunderbird clients operate independently and do not have access to the internet.

Sincerely, Yaroslav
