My Thunderbird mail, which has been set up as POP until now, started giving this message yesterday morning: "The connection to the server mail.munkebo-borger.dk was reset." After that, it no longer downloaded any mail from the server. I have now switched Thunderbird to IMAP, and everything works fine since then. But what is the reason that it will no longer run POP, which it has done for several years? Best regards Tommy Jeppesen
