try to use either the guest login, or create a new login & start
thunderbird with NO add-ons, to see if the problem is in your
configuration...
or try this & see if that issue happens..:
How to start Thunderbird in Safe Mode
1. /If Thunderbird is not running:/ Start Thunderbird in Safe Mode
by going to your *Terminal*and running: |thunderbird -safe-mode|
You may need to specify the Thunderbird installation path
(e.g. /usr/lib/thunderbird).
/If Thunderbird is already running:/ At the top of the Thunderbird
window, click the Helpmenu, and select the Restart with Add-ons
Disabled... menu item and then click theRestart button in the dialog
box.
