I have had Thunderbird on my HP laptop for several years. Everything has worked perfectly. BUT, I cannot receive Email, starting yesterday. When I click the Get Email icon, nothing happens. My Email server on Comcast is getting Email which I can see and read, but Thunderbird is not getting the Email. I would appreciate any advice.

Regards, Jim

I'm seeing that, too, in eastern Massachusetts. I believe the Comcast IMAP servers are sick today - they have been working sporadically, but mostly not. As you say, Webmail is working as expected.

I wonder if this is related to the upcoming transition of Comcast's email service to Yahoo?

Thanks for your reply! Yeah, I thought about that move to Yahoo. I will have to look at what has to be done to make that move.

PS. I forgot to mention that I got an Email from Mozilla that told me my post had a reply. Go figure, I can't receive Email except from Mozilla.
