Re: [PLUG] invisible Thunderbirds?


This might be similar to my problem. Sometimes I have to click on a different folder, then click on the Inbox again. After that, for some reason, everything works again.

As of a few days ago, Thunderbird won't display a message when I hit enter. It doesn't seem to want to reply/forward/create or much of anything else either. It *is* coming up and collecting mail, but I can't read it.

When I exit, the program leaves the screen but it's still running (per ps aux). It does the same thing after I kill the processes and restart.

I am unaware of adding or deleting anything that might affect this.
Machine is a Dell Latitude 820, Ubuntu 7.04, XFCE

-------------------------------------------------

on a related note, I tend to read email from too many machines (via POP). Right now I set one machine as master and the rest to leave copies on the server. Is there an easier way to do this that would let me delete mail I don't want from any computer?

Someone suggested IMAP but my provider doesn't offer it and I would prefer not to set up a home server for this.



Thanks.
