Hi,

my mail/news is sometimes "busy": it shows the hourglass but there is no 
activity visible. This happens after selecting the inbox of my pop3 account.

I still can switch between folders, between accounts, move messages - no 
problem (albeit slow). But the hourglass stays and "get mail every x 
minutes" doesnt work any longer.

Sometimes "compact this folder" on the inbox gets rid of the hourglass, 
sometimes not. Then, the only other choice to get "get mail every x 
minutes" back is a restart. And mozilla crashes regularly while closing.

How can i check what Mozilla is doing? Or is there a bug? Search for 
"hourglass" at bugzilla shows nothing like that.

This behavior is there a long time. Maybee since 0.9.6

I have tried nightlies and milestones. Made a new user account, deleted 
XUL, deleted chrome. Anything else?

details:
- win32 (NT40sp6 german)
- 2 accounts: 1 imap, 1 pop3
- only inbox of pop3 affected
- 3 filters on imap
- 2 filters on pop3
- local directory of pop3 account is on a network drive and not in the 
mozilla default path, changed per preferences dialog

regards
Ralf Storm
