Why am I suddenly getting tons of spam email since the latest update?

I have updated Thunderbird many times over the years and never lost its ability to send spam email to the junk folder. Suddenly, I have tons of it (labeled spam by Norton) still sitting in my inbox and I am having to delete it all every day! Any reason you know of that this is happening? Thanks!

My guess is the Norton tool is not compatible with the latest version of Thunderbird. After all Thunderbird sends what it considers spam to the junk folder. Your Norton product does it's own thing entirely.
