My Thunderbird is continually downloading email messages, severely affecting its functionality, making it unusable. How can I reset it.

I presume this is a POP account. All I can guess is that the popstate.dat file is corrupted. If you delete the file, Thunderbird will recreate it, but will do one more full download in doing so. More info on that file is at http://kb.mozillazine.org/Popstate.dat
