Well, regardless of any of that.... Thanks for the time, "list reader",
however, with any other MUA I have no problems whatsoever. It seems
that this situation is specific to Thunderbird on Linux. Right now, I'm
using Thunderbird in win32 (version 1.0 (20041206)), and it works fine.
Has anyone else seen this problem?
Thanks

I also see this problem - currently, I only use Tbird on FC3 although I
do have it on my Win2k box. I had put it down to the fact that my fedora
mailbox currently has about 60k messages - a reminder that when I have
finished reading to-day's backlog, I must archive about 40k of these.
Another thing I notice with Tbird is that although I have configured it
to collect mail automatically, it does not do this (and never has even
in the beta and pre-release versions last year).
Otherwise, I find Tbird an excellent mail and news client.
