Using Mac 10.9.4 If I open Thunderbird, I can connect to my e-mail and download messages. If I then select "Get Mail" again, Thunderbird hangs, and fails to connect to my e-mails. If I then shut Thunderbird down and reopen it, I am able to connect immediately to my mail.

It seems to have sorted itself out after a few days. (Fingers crossed). So far today, it has worked properly. Will keep an eye on things for the next week and report back if it does it again.

does it get mail again after 10 or 15 minutes if you don't touch the get mail button?
