I just upgraded from thunderbird-31.8.0 to thunderbird-38.1.0. Thunderbird does not appear to successfully connect to uw-imap. (uw-imap = http://www.washington.edu/imap/ imap server )

When the new thunderbird connects to my local uw-imap (started via xinetd) it appears to connect:

And after typing my password:

But then Thunderbird never shows messages. In the Thunderbird status bar at the bottom left of the GUI it states: rich@myisp: Looking for folders ...

Five imapd processes are eventually started (all running at 100% cpu) and about 5 thunderbird processes are running at about 30%CPU usage.

Any idea on how to get Thunderbird-38.1 working? (Reverting to Thunderbird-31.8.0 'Fixes' the issue.)
