Hi Guilermo, There are two steps to resolve this problem. First we need to make sure this isn't a misconfiguration, then we need to generate a log of your POP session with GMail.
Please check your settings in thunderbird; in particular, make sure none of the settings beneath "Leave the message in the server" are turned on. If everything looks right to you, then I need you to install to generate a log. To do this, you need to install the netcat package. Then open a terminal and type the following command: mknod mypipe p The command above creates a special file type called a FIFO or named pipe. Now you need to run the following command: nc -l -p 9999 < mypipe | tee -a log.txt | nc gmail 110 | tee -a log.txt 1> mypipe Replace "gmail" with the name of the gmail server you have configured in Thunderbird. Next to that server name in Thunderbird is a port number; it should be 110, but if it's different, replace "110" with that server number. Press return to run the command. Now, in Thunderbird, change your gmail server name to "localhost" and change the port number to "9999". Save your settings and click get mail; wait for it to get your mail (and presumably delete it from the server), go back to the configuration screen, and restore your original server name and port number. In the terminal, press Control-C. Open the file named "log.txt" in a text editor. This contains a log of all the communication between thunderbird and Gmail -- including your username, password, and emails. Make a copy of this file and then delete everything after the first hundred lines. For the first hundred lines, delete any confidential information and then attach the result to this bug report. I know that's a lot of work for you to do, but a log will help us confirm and fix the bug.
