Wolfgang: I also observed this "TB redownloads either 30 or 50 messages" with the gmail account that Connor gave me, and I have one possible explanation. During the initial download with the debug version, I can see a number of cancelled downloads due to failures to acquire a folder lock here:
c:/tb/beta/src/mailnews/imap/src/nsAutoSyncState.cpp, line 643 After some period of time, there were additional attempts to download messages from folders that I thought were already done, and it is possible that those earlier failures were being downloaded. I have not fully confirmed that this is the cause, but it is a possible explanation. -- 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 [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
