I need try to press it multiple times, it doesn't work. I close and restart the "Mail and Newsgroup" window and again retry, sometimes it never works. Reproducible: Sometimes Steps to Reproduce: 1. Keep Mail and Newsgroup window running for about a day. (In my case, I hardly reboot my machine and problem surfaces occasionally. 2. Try to get new messages after gap of 8-10 hrs. 3. You may not get window responding and searching for new messages at times. Actual Results: Since window doesn't respond, I can't get my mails. Expected Results: It should respond to get messages action everytime. I login to my office account through Mozilla to check mails from home. I never see any problem in link to our office.

I see the same effect on Linux and Solaris versions of Mozilla, currently with SuSE Linux 8.2/ Mozilla 1.7b (Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.7b) Gecko/20040421), but also on (any?) older version. It is interesting to note the following: I have the option "check for new mails every 2min." on, but I don't automatically download the mails. After some time of normal operation (several hours usually, sometimes several days), Mozilla will *detect that new mail is there* (green arrow), but when pressing the "get msgs" button the arrow immediately disappears but no attempt to download the mails is done. There is not even a "contacting server..." message in the status line - just nothing. At this point I have to terminate Mozilla entirely (not just the mail window). It happens with a pop3 account, if that is of interest. In very rare cases it recovers when pressing "get msgs" multiple times within short time, but chances are less than 10%. It may also be of interest that sometimes, when I get large mails or the internet is slow, I sometimes see "transient" effects like these: - green arrow indicates new mail - "get msgs" reports "no new messages" - pressing it again a minute later downloads the mail It appears to be a problem that a mail is detected when it is not yet entirely available on the pop3-server? Maybe this kind of problem is a cause for the other problem?
