Why has Thunderbird stopped downloading messages unless I explicitly request them?
Starting a few days ago Thunderbird ignores the Server settings on accounts, and neither checks for new messages when it starts up, nor when the timer (5 minutes for most of the several accounts) interval is completed. However, when I explicitly request Get Messages for a particular or ALL accounts, it does download the messages. Sending of emails works fine. I cannot find any option or setting that could cause this behavior. Every one of my email accounts with several different providers are all affected exactly the same, so I do not think that it is a problem with a provider. Any assistance appreciated.
