It doesn't Automatically collect new mail on Thunderbird start after entering the password for the primary password prompt.

Does this happen ALL the time? And if not, can you describe under what conditions this most frequently happens?

On Thunderbird 115.8.0 (64-bit) start(This is condition that its happening.) This happens all the time. On TB(thunderbird) start if i turn off the primary password this doesnt happen at all, no password prompts and auto collects new mail on start. I have thunderbird set to auto collect new mail every 20 minutes changed in about:config. Also Security.prompt_for_master_password_on_startup=false is set to false.

I saw this often, until a few days ago I temporarily disabled my primary password, i.e. removed it, so now have no primary password.

Agree with previous poster: since doing that I've not once seen this issue.
