One of the authors of this thread left to Postbox. I checked PostBox if the IMAP-messages I have also get stuck in Postbox. 3 out of 5 get through.
Of those 3 2 get through when I move them to another directory, and then let them reload completely before I open them in Thunderbird. The other one (12 MB) contains two attachments of which one refuses to load. The other 2 messages also fail to download in postbox. Postbox however doesn't lock up the downloading of the rest. Conclusion: Postbox will probably have a better heuristic or cuts impossible downloads earlyer, but still uses this heuristic philosophy over a reliable method. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1074260 Title: Thunderbird heavy IMAP traffic downloading messages To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/thunderbird/+bug/1074260/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
