I like Thunderbird but sometimes it just gets ... stuck. I don't know of any better way to explain it.
I presume that some networking thing hits its limits and needs to time out (generally DNS ... it's always DNS). After some mysterious amount of time, Thunderbird gets unstuck and continues on its merry way.
The real problem, at the end of the day, is single-threaded GUI toolkits, though.
- presto8 4y agoI used to have some hangs as well, but then I played around with the compaction settings and that seemed to fix it. I think there is a settings option to add a prompt before compaction, and maybe modify the schedule. It would be a good feature if they would allow compaction to run in the middle of the night to avoid bothering the user.
