> What I was suggesting... KSysGuard shows that yahoo feeds data to Thunderbird in very teeny chunks. A message with an attached photo took about an hour to download yesterday. I also access my e-mail from multiple workstation accounts and operating systems. So some time ago, I set all my e-mail accounts to *** not *** keep messages on my workstation. That is, "Message Synchronizing": "Keep messages for this account on this computer" is unchecked. So messages have to be re-downloaded after every Thunderbird launch and account sign-in. > In a terminal.... Yes, I use IMAP. Tried it: bash.4[~]: export MOZ_LOG_FILE=/[myhome]/thunderbird/log bash.5[~]: export MOZ_LOG=IMAP:5,timestamp ... bash.10[thunderbird]: thunderbird & (I assume putting it in the background makes no difference in the logging.) I tried it a few times. I saw the same misbehavior as yesterday, but the log file remained empty. I also tried it without the ampersand. The log file is empty. There are no subdirectories or other files in "/[myhome]/thunderbird/". _______________________________________________ users mailing list -- users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to users-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
