Note that up until last week, Thunderbird has been working flawlessly, and I appreciate having it. Last week, however, it started to be slow and constantly downloading messages.

When it's acting slow, the status bar at the bottom says: Downloading message X of Y in INBOX...

When it is slow; X is always larger than Y. For example, right now it says, "Downloading message 2223 of 1270 in INBOX".

Eventually; it will catch up, and the constant downloads will stop, but then they will start back up again a little later with the same issue. I believe the second number (1270, in my case) is always the same.

This is on Thunderbird 91.5.0 (32-bit) on Windows 10 connected IMAP to a Gmail account.

Any ideas?

Thanks.
