Occasionally my Thunderbird gets into a mode where, under the Windows tab, I see

Mail & Newsgroups

Address Book

Sending Messages

Sending Messages


Huh? What's this "Sending Messages" about, and why are there two of them? It's not sending any messages. Normally, in place of "Sending Messages" under the Windows tab, I see "Inbox".

I reboot, and "Sending Messages" disappear, and "Inbox" reappears.

So, duh, what's going on?

Not sure what 'the Windows tab' is. Please post a screenshot. https://support.mozilla.org/kb/how-do-i-create-screenshot-my-problem

Sorry. This is Mac TB. If you had that, you'd know what it is. It's actually the "Window" tab.

Please post an image as it is more helpful in offering clarity on exactly what is going on.

What does "Sending Message" mean, when TB isn't sending any messages. I have gotten two or three of these, under the "Window" tab. They disappear when I restart TB.
