Hello Gerd,
Thank you for submitting this bug and reporting a problem with Thunderbird.
You made this bug report in 2012 and there have been several versions of
Ubuntu and Thunderbird since then.
Could you confirm that this is no longer a problem and that we can close the
ticket?
Or, if it is still a problem, could you run the following (only once):
apport-collect 912710
and upload the updated logs and and any other logs that are relevant for
this particular issue.
Thank you again for helping make Ubuntu and Thunderbird better.

Title:
Oneiric Thunderbird freezes on receiving mail
Status in thunderbird package in Ubuntu:
Incomplete
Bug description:
After having switched to Oneiric a couple of days ago, Thunderbird
freezes on receiving mail most (all ?) of the time.
Running in safe-mode this is very easy to reproduce for me:
Having an IMAP mailbox active, I ask someone to drop me a mail to that
mailbox.
I see the new mail in that mailbox summary, but Thunderbird is frozen
completely. The only action I can take is to close (i.e. kill) it via
the window manager.
This is strace output:
lulu:/home/ba> ps -ef | grep thund
ba 1388 2156 1 11:29 pts/2 00:00:04
/usr/lib/thunderbird-8.0/thunderbird-bin -safe-mode
ba 1516 2155 0 11:34 pts/1 00:00:00 grep thund
lulu:/home/ba> sudo strace -p 1388
Process 1388 attached - interrupt to quit
write(59,
"\17\0)\0?\0S\0c\0q\0\201\0\217\0\233\0\242\0\246\0\243\0\235\0\226\0\214\0\201\0"...,
16560^C <unfinished ...>
Process 1388 detached
lulu:/home/ba>
So obviously Thunderbird is hanging in a write to fd 59.
lsof tells me:
thunderbi 1388 ba 59u unix 0xf26e9680 0t0 8554035 socket
thunderbi 1388 ba 60u IPv4 8528771 0t0 TCP
lulu:57892->abgze76e.fsc.net:imaps (ESTABLISHED)
This happens with different IMAP mailboxes (Google being one of them).
With Thunderbird in Natty (very same tb-configuration) I never had
such an issue.
I really would like to help debugging, if anybody gives me
instructions. But I REALLY need advise how to use another Thunderbird
version (from the ubuntu repos if possible).
Thanks
Gerd
