All I did was delete a bunch of extraneous stuff from "Mail" that

/pop.juno.com
/smart mailboxes
I see no connection there, but obviously something has happened.
I couldn't see anything in "Config" that looked as though it
might help.
Have you tried creating a new tbird profile, to see if you get the
same error?
I will try that, it should help define the problem even if it does
not correct it. i really want to use the cleaned up "Mail" files and
if that is where the problem is it might continue ... Still a good
thing to try!
a new user will show if problem is with your user configs, or with
thunderbird's files.
if you try new user and still have problem, which i believe you may,
because of type of error you are getting, try following...
press <ctrl+shift+J> to open error console. there you see all past
error messages.
across top, you will see a selection of buttons for each type of
error. select [All], move cursor to each error, click them 1 by 1.
when error highlights, press <ctrl+c> to copy, <ctrl+v> to paste a
copy to an open text editor. repeat until you have them all copied,
save to a file. press [Clear] button to start a new collection.
[and no, i do not know why authors did not put in a feature to save
errors to a file. one day i will look to find a page at mozilla.org
that gives a good explanation of error console and how to trouble-
shoot errors.]
restart thunderbird. if you have any add-ons, select from main menu;
Help > Restart with Add-ons Disabled
restart thunderbird, send yourself some messages, then download them.
if problem disappeared, it is an add-on.
if not, it is with thunderbird files. press <ctrl+shift+j> again,
copy new errors as above, save to a new file.
now you have 3 choices;
#1a - store errors to a file storage site, post back location
so this list's subscribers can see if can help.
#1b - store errors to a file storage site, post location to
thunderbird list subscribers can see if they can help.
#2 - forget all of above, uninstall, then reinstall thunderbird
to see if problem corrects.
if you chose #2 and still have problem, it is with user, or a bad install.
another thing, i did go thru 'about:config' to see if there where
any configs associated with displaying message activity. if there
is, i have no idea of how it is named, as i checked all names of
'status bar', 'activity', 'download', and about 5 more. after
making changes, i restarted thunderbird and found no change in
what i see at status location.
this does not mean that i had right one, as there is no telling
what it is called. mozilla authors are like that. :-)
much luck.
btw. i would opt for #2. easiest in long run. ((gbwg))
