Thunderbird stopped working several months ago - I'd been away for three days and when I was back and tried to download emails, nothing happened. I uninstalled the app, then today downloaded and reinstalled it. When I clicked on Finish, the program opened to show the old installation complete with old emails. Why? If I uninstalled it weeks ago, why did a new install show that old one? That's weird.. This supposed "new" install still will not download new emails. I have checked the settings and they all seem to be correct. Could someone please explain why this is happening. It's so frustrating after Thunderbird had worked so well for so long. Thanks Jenny
