Binary package hint: mozilla-thunderbird

I am running dapper drake. Thunderbird has two pop accounts and one movemail account.

The pop accounts work fine,

The movemail account performs strangely. I have selected for it to check mail on startup and every 10 mins. It refuses to do either, even a ctrl-shift-t does not goad it into working however if I right click the account directly and select 'get messages for account' it downloads my system mail perfectly :)

I have tried 'apt-get install --reinstall mozilla-thunderbird'

I have wiped my .mozilla-thunderbird directory totally and set the accounts up again. Strangely the movemail account worked briefly as expected when it was the only account in thunderbird.

Since it works when I right click the account directly I am confident it is not a config problem but a problem with thunderbird.

Since I have been missing system mail it is quite a problem :)
