No error message(s) in Error Console. The problem appears to be that WebMail continues listening on its ports (netstat reveals this), but the Webmail services are in some indeterminate state. When Shredder then attempts to connect to the Webmail service, the socket connection succeeds, but the protocol communication fails (Webmail service never responds). Eventually, Shredder returns with "Connection to server localhost timed out."
If the Webmail service still shows "Running", as opposed to "Error", and you attempt to stop the service, it remains in a state of "Waiting", indefinitely and a restart of Shredder is required. If the service shows "Error", no action is possible and a restart of Shredder is also required. Therefore, from what I have observed, the extension itself would need to be debugged to see why it's hanging up; and that I don't know how do, unfortunately. As noted, I'm using Shredder nightlies. I can't recall if I've seen this issue with official Thunderbird; though, given what I have observed, I see not reason why the issue would not also exist when Webmail is used with Thunderbird.
