Hi,

Ever since the last time Thunderbird was updated when I synced, the
process does not die when I shut down Thunderbird.  I have to kill it
before I can start up Thunderbird again.  Is anyone else experiencing
this problem.  Thought I would ask here before I complained to the
Mozilla folks.

Regards,

Colleen

Occasionally I get this, but I have not narrowed any causes down yet.
For example I have just tried it, but it worked perfectly. However, I
get sometimes 100% CPU usage and it has to do something with the IMAP
access of my mailboxes (I am using 2 at the moment if that makes any
difference).

Hope that helps,
Ignas A.

P.S. I am thinking more and more, that I should to switch to something
more lightweight... :p Maybe mutt or luamail... but it will have to
happen a bit later. :)

Whenever I have this problem I find that when I look at my Activity
Manager it is still trying to copy a sent message to the sent folder on
IMAP. That process just get stuck sometimes. Makes Thunderbird stay open.

It sounds like a lot of people are having this problem. Filing a bug
report with a stack trace would probably help.

Yes, same here.

Maybe unrelated, but I experienced this off & on over the past
months/years when using Enigmail with Thunderbird.
