Thanks. Hopefully the blow-by-blow instruction will explain
why my Thunderbird is so slow retrieving email. It's been
suggested that I compact the folders in order to speed up
retrieval, but I tried that several times (folder by folder)
and it does no good.
The program itself loads in a second, but retrieving e-mail
can take up to five minutes. What I usually do is call up
Firefox first, click on the E-mail button and then return to
Firefox. While I'm checking the weather and reading my New
York Times articles Thunderbird is grinding away in the
background and finally comes up with my messages for the day.
A nuisance but it works. However, you would think the
software would be a little more efficient.
