Does Thunderbird create an activity/communications log (e.g. outlooks opmlog)
In Outlook, my e-mail accounts based on my web host server often experience severe delays. The Outlook opmlog suggests it is a problem with the server responding to an RETR command. (My yahoo.co.uk e-mail is fine).
1. I do not seem to experience the same delays in Thunderbird. Why should that be??
2. An activity log may help me to establish why, but I can't find any reference to one in the help. Is there one and, if so, how do I turn it one and view it??
3. Also, using Thunderbird seemed to occasionally lock my IP address out on the web host server. Any ideas why - could it be it be related to security certificates??
Thanks

Thanks Matt. I got this to work but without the Run as Administrator even though I'm on Windows 8.1. I can't see any RETR commands which suggests that Thunderbird does not use them (so it would not hit the delay) but I need to check what it does do instead. It does seem to use the other commands that Outlook uses though. I also need to check out the IP firewall issue.
Thanks again. Ian
