Actually, as I tried to explain, what's going on is this; 1. After wakeup TB immediately tries to reconnect 2. TB calls nsHostResolver to resolve the server name which immediately gets an error because at this time, the network interface is not yet up 3. nsHostResolver treats this error (in fact, any error) as an unknown host, and puts that that "fact" in its cache 4. TB recognizes that the request is not initiated by the user and therefore suppresses any UI level error message
5. User comes around and clicks "Get Mail" 6. TB again calls nsHostResolver to resolve the server name, which returns "unknown host" from its cache 7. This time the request IS initiated by the user so an error message is shown 8. Not until the cache entry expires can the user successfully reconnect Having said that, it seems that this problem is gone in TB 10.0! /C -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to thunderbird in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/584529 Title: Thunderbird complains there is no connection on resume from suspend, when there is a connection Status in Mozilla Thunderbird Mail and News: Invalid Status in “thunderbird” package in Ubuntu: Triaged Bug description: Binary package hint: thunderbird When I resume from suspend, network manager quickly re-establishes a WiFi internet connection. With an active connection, I try to check my mail with Thunderbird, but it complains that it can't connect to the IMAP server. This seems to happen after longer suspend periods because if I try to replicate the behaviour by quickly suspending and resuming (suspend of a few seconds), I get no warning.
