Is the firewall letting thunderbird connect to the internet ?

Yes, the firewall is treating it as safe traffic. And I have been using Thunderbird along with firewalls for years. This problem never happened during my 5-6 years of Thunderbird usage.

The problem persists even now. Unable to download any emails.

Hi Wayne,

The abnormal behavior stopped by itself. I am using Thunderbird normally now. Thanks for your concern. Much appreciated.

Take care.
