A working pop3 mail stopped getting mail.
There is no erro indication,
there is no indcation about status of mailbx
"Building summary file for inbox.." displayed for 1 second then nothing happens

Re-entring the server user name does not help.

Updated various: Fierfox, new RSS feeds, not sure when happend and if relevant.



Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. on my computer.. pressing get mail
2.
3.

Actual Results:  
"Building summary file for inbox.." displayed for 1 second then nothing happens


Expected Results:  
mail should be read from server

Please instruct how to get additional log or info..
Thunderbird still does not get mail when the "get mail" button is clicked.
When the inbox is double clicked a new Thunderbird window is opened and the mail
is retrived from the server.
I can confirm this behaviour.

It used to work fine, and then I installed the 25 Oct build (I was previously
using 0.8 milestone). On the same date I started using a single inbox for most
of my accounts (not local folders). I don't know whether this is relevant or not.

Upon 1st load, TB successfully checks everything, but refuses to check subsequently.

Like the reporter, I'm happy to provide any logs.

can you try tomorrow's build and let me know if it works better tomorrow? thx.
I actually deleted all my .msfs a couple of days ago, which fixed this, while
horking my RSS feeds (although that's a different bug).
Mail refresh looks OK on build 2004-11-03 !

RSS, on the other hand is somewhat broken:
http://spreadfirefox.com/community/rss10.xml does not refresh
http://planet.mozilla.org/rss20.xml seems to work fine
Marking fixed per comment 6.
