Hello, This worked with no problems for many months. Recently, probably only starting today, Thunderbird complains about inability to write to Drafts (or any other IMAP folders). When writing a new message, after certain number of character entered to the message body, a "copying message to Drafts folder...." is presented at the bottom. This message at the bottom of the screen does not go away... it is just stuck there (and the email message does not appear in the Drafts folder, on gmail). (as I said, it used to be fine, until today). In some cases, also a pop-up is presented that says that Thunderbird can't write to the draft folder, and suggest to write to a local folder. (That's really nice, but not what I want...) I tried, some solutions, such as making sure the folder name is "Subscibed" and doing a a right-click on the folder name and then Settings-->Repair Folder - but this does not help. READING from the imap folder seems to work fine. I see new messages arriving at my gmail Inbox folder in Thunderbird. Any idea? Is there a way to debug this to understand if this is a network error (????) or some wrong behaivor on the side of the gmail imap server? Any guidance on how to provide more information in order to help the experts provide a solution/fix is most welcome... Thanks! Ari
