Is Thunderbird one of those apps that always runs once started, and
never quits when you close the window?

There have been times in the past where this is the case, but they're few and far between these days. Not saying it doesn't happen, but I haven't seen it close but not kill the process in a long time. But when it does do that, it will often leave the lock file and cause the error that it's already running.

If so, I wonder if it's bad at handling users logging out and/or
rebooting their computer?  (Not removing the lock as it quits, or not
being able to.)

That's pretty much the only time I've seen it happen. If you shut down your system while apps are running, there's a decent chance one of the apps will not close gracefully. I always just make sure I don't have anything running when I reboot.

Power failure is what left Thunderbird in a state. The lock was in the ".thunderbird" tree as a link to a nonexistent file "192.168.1.218:+7103".  Deleting the entry enabled Thunderbird to start.

Thanks to all
