Steps to reproduce:

Until yesterday, Thunderbird was working fine. But when I spun up my Mac today morning, it did not start anymore.

Actual results:

The Thunderbird menu bar appears, but then the app gets frozen (the colored spinner keeps spinning).

I tried to re-install the app (latest download from your website) and also tried to run it in Safe mode, but this doesn't help either. In the profile folder, I can see it still creates a .parentlock file.

Expected results:

It should start :-)

Ok, when I tried a couple of hours later, everything worked fine again. I have no clue what caused this, but I'll close this bug.
