User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; Intel Mac OS X 10.5; en-US; rv:1.9.1b3pre) Gecko/20090104 Shiretoko/3.1b3pre Build Identifier: version 2.0.0.19 (20081209) Every once in a while I'll try to bring up Thunderbird and it is hung up--It wont come to the front when I click on it in the dock. This happens about once every couple of weeks or so and has been doing it for a long long time (a year or so), spanning several versions. When I force quit it, apple brings up a stack trace and ever time it's in the same place -- waiting on a condition variable inside the IMAP protocol. I am connecting to a Cyrus IMAP server on a x86 Debian server. Reproducible: Sometimes Steps to Reproduce: 1. Just leave thunderbird open for weeks at a time. 2. It hangs. 3. There is no step 3! Actual Results: It hangs. Expected Results: Not hang.
Here is my backtrace from when I force quit Thunderbird. I've been paying attention to them for a while so I'm sure that at least the last few functions are the same every time this happens to me. I've trimmed all the threads except the main thread because stupid bugzilla is whining that attachment is too big. If you want to see more, just ask.
David, can you reproduce with a beta and attach imap log? beta 2 will be available within a few days http://wiki.mozilla.org/MailNews:Logging http://www.mozillamessaging.com/en-US/thunderbird/early_releases/

David, is this happening after Mac comes back from sleep? What happens if you use beta 2? http://www.mozillamessaging.com/en-US/thunderbird/early_releases/ (backup your profile before using)

Summary: Thunderbird hangs and needs to be force quit (once every couple of weeks) → Thunderbird hangs during normal operation
I've been running a daily shredder build for about a month or 2 and I haven't had this bug happen. Of course, the nature of intermittent hangs makes me a little wary to say it's completely gone... But it's looking good so far.
Will reopen if it happens again.
