It simply doesn't work since the last Update. I've only reported this becaus another user has the "Vista" - Operating System ...(UUUUH!)

Reproducible: Always

Actual Results:  
Get the Emails by clicking on "retrieve"

Expected Results:  
Everything's allright

download emails automatically every 10 minutes

And can you get your emails when pressing the Get mail button ? If not your foirewall is probably blocking your connections.

Everything works, I can retrieve Emails by clicking the Get Mail Button, only the automatically function doesn't work anymore. This was very useful!

Can you check Tools-> Error console and copy what you see there ?

The Error report only shows a warning because of "word wrap", no explanation.

Have you disabled all extensions? (thunderbird.exe -safe-mode)

Charlotte what you think about comment #6?

It is a dupe of bug #458625, bug #506609 or bug #458625?

Than you for answering, but I'm working since serveral years with this program and know this very well. It was only temporarily, the bug is fixed since the last update.
