Hi, I have 2 webmail accounts configured to thunderbird in a similar manner.

1 account works fine but the other keeps popping up 'confirm security exception ' msgs when i try to download mails. once i confirm, nothing happens and so i click 'get messages' again and again the confirm... will pop up.

frustrated.

what am i doing wrong? how can i fix it. Ive checked setting for both accounts and they are almost identical except for the email addresses , pw etc
