Steps to reproduce:

Opened the program and Thunderbird 74.0b2 does not check for email at startup

Actual results:

had to check for mail manually

Expected results:

Mail client should have checked for new mail at startup. all accunt settings are correct and right boxes checked

Are these POP3 or IMAP accounts?

I have two POP3, one IMAP account, and two newsgroup accounts all configured to "Check for new messages at startup" in my 74.0b2 on Windows 10 and Ubuntu Linux. All accounts are receiving mail at startup.

Do you have any extensions installed and have you tried safe mode? Use Help > Restart with Add-ons Disabled.

This is a single IMAP account, I have "Check for new messages at startup" checked.

This was working great until the last update. I do not have any extensions , but I will try safe mode anyway

I tried Safe Mode and it still does not work. Maybe deleting and settingup the account again will help?

What happens if you create a new profile with just that account?

Summary: Thunderbird 74.0b2 does not check for email at startup → Thunderbird 74.0b2 does not check for new email at startup

Wayne, it seems that when I upgrsaded to 76.0 b1 the problem went away. Maybe it was a corrupt file somewhere in the system or something that Windows 10 broke in one of its many not so good "updates"

Womdows has broken more than a few things in the last few forced updates, first my printing, then my networking, it is a crapshoot as to what they will damage with every update the cram down your throat, and Thunderbird was likely one of them

The severity of these bugs was changed, mistakenly, from normal to S3.

Because these bugs have a priority of --, indicating that they have not been previously triaged, these bugs should be changed to Severity of --.

Severity: S3 → --

Thanks for the update
