Every time i log into my email account i keep been told one or other of the email accounts have timed out. I have tried removing the accounts and replacing them, but i still keep getting the message. Can anyone out there help. George

Disable your firewall and Antivirus.

  • check whether thunderbird working properly or not.

If its working properly, then your firewall blocking the incoming connection, make thunderbird an exception or Add thunderbird to whitelist

I've tried all that. The problem is, my main email account is fine, it is the two extra ones that keeps coming up as timed out. I am going to start a restart of the whole computer, because i have just tried the emails sites in the Virgin Media site and the same problem happens. Thank You for all your help. George
