you don't see anything in the UI, like "Not Responding" in the title bar of the thunderbird window? Reproduces in safe mode? (Help | Restart...)

In Safe Mode with all Add-Ons deactivated, the behaviour is the same. No reaction when pressing DEL or saying Delete from the various menu entries.
(In reply to Andre Klapper from comment #1) > Which account type is this about? It is the email account. It it the information you need? And I am on the release channel.

Is this correctly set up as a POP account?
(In reply to Andre Klapper from comment #5) > Is this correctly set up as a POP account? This is correctly set up as POP3 account - means sending and receiving is fine. I have just seen that on a second account deleting is possible. The email provider is the same for both accounts. So why does it work on the one and not on the other?
Anything in tools->error console? What about rightclick folder->properties->repair?

Hello all, just one information that I detected this morning. I have seen that in the account the trash icon was missing. I deleted all trash files from the storage area and one was generated again for the global acount when I restarted TB. I copied it to my account and now it appears with correct icon again. Deleting is fine - again - now. One interesting question could be - who deleted the trash file? Thanks all for your help.

Interesting observation. I think the Trash can't be redirected to other account (as Sent, Templates, Drafts can be) so every account must have one. So there is probably a bug that TB did not recreate the Trash folder when it went missing.
If I shall check something please let me know.
