I have raised this question before - in the context of TBird getting a long delay on running its filters to copy to my local inbox. I had some useful help from 2 people but still unable to get my emails properly from an ISP where TBird has worked fine until 2 weeks ago. Although there *is* a problem with TBIrd getting 'confused' if filters or user move messages to local inbox when the data has not arrived, the main problem with IMAP is not getting data for a message for which the header has been received. I have now run with diagnostics and it seems to show TBird 'giving up' on receiving the data.

As I do not understand the detail of the logging, I wonder if someone could be kind enough to advise what is going on - to see if it is a problem at the ISP or with TBird?

I cleared down all messages at the ISP and then sent two small messages from my gmail account. These received ok. I then sent a large one with attachment and that timed out on getting data after the header was received. I stopped and restarted TB and seemed to get similar behaviour.

The end of the second log is below and I would be very grateful for any advice as to what to try next. And any advice on how to upload a large log if that is useful -- I could load to a neocities site if that helps.

After 2 weeks of struggling to get emails and one more complete reinstall of TBird, today the emails are flowing as they should. I don't know where the blockage was and, to be honest I don't care as long as it stays like this :-)
