User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; de; rv:1.8.1.13) Gecko/20080311 Firefox/2.0.0.13
Build Identifier: Version 2.0.0.12 (20080213)

I started dragging a mail from my inbox to a folder.
In the background thunderbird was retrieving mail for my different email addresses.
Before I could drop the mail in the folder a message box opened ("timeout, server can not be reached").

Thunderbird locked - I could not press the ok-button of the messagebox. Could not close thunderbird - could only end it in the windows task manager.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Change the Server Name of one Mailbox to an invalid name.
2. Click Retrieve Mail.
3. Start dragging a mail of your Inbox (mouse down, drag but _not_ mouse up).
4. Wait for the message "server cant be reached to pop up"
5. "drop the mail" - mouse up
Now try to click ok on the message box.
Actual Results:  
Thundebird freezes.

Expected Results:  
I can close the message box and exit thunderbird.
