You indicate you want something stable but you are running an development branch. Dev will have such issues from time to time - this is one of them. Suggest you consult your distro, or DL from getthunderbird.com
Also, please use civil language in BMO. https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/page.cgi?id=etiquette.html

As Wayne said, we have three channels: Daily, Beta and Release/ESR(stable). Beta is usually pretty good but Daily can be "busted" at times. You should know that Thunderbird software uses Mozilla platform code which is in a constant state of flux. The Thunderbird team has to follow, and if Mozilla platform changes take effect at "five to twelve" and a Daily build starts at "twelve", we have sometime little chance to catch that.
We had Dailies that crashed when started and we had some that didn't even show the folders or a message list. If you're not willing to suffer from some surprises, please use a different channel. We like Daily testers, but they need to be patient ;-)
If you've been a software developer for 20 years, come and join the project. I've been in software for 32 years since 1987 and I had a student assistant programmer job before that.
