Sadly no, it is a choice of ease of use or better security.  And better
security is always a inconvence.  It is the old risk/reward story.  Is
it that much risk vs the time you spend logging in manually?  If it s a
laptop that you take all over, then the risk is greater.  If not then
probably less unless of course you live in a location prone to break-ins.

There is one different method you could use.  Get true crypt, create a
volume (virutal drive) and install Thunderbird to it.  Then if a theif
stole your computer they would not have access to thunderbird without
your password.  And you would only have to log in once to use
thunderbird per day (or per boot depending on how you set it up).  But
again perhaps this is more than you want to do.  Only you can decide if
it is worth it.
