If you're going off-line just configure your reader to download. LOL. That makes Thunderbird to crash or lock for hours, wasting dozens of gigabytes. And then it skips some mails for unknown reason. Further, my home server will be offline for the laptop, but my ISP folders are not. Thunderbird can not handle this.
Then get rid of that unnecessary server on the laptop. you home/wired connection should be connected and you shouldn't need to have T'Bird download. I know this because, as I say, I run pure IMAP. I have no need to download at the T'Bird end and don't. I'm fortunate that my area has plenty of wifi, the mall, library, coffee shops. I don't need it while driving, I've already downloaded the latest map& updates before setting out. The problems you have are artificially generated by the UN-necessary complexity of that additional server on the laptop. It is not needed and it is very clearly screwing up your ability to use IMAP properly. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
