I can send but not receive emails on my desktop (W10, McAfee, TB 102.11.2). On my other devices I can both send and receive emails using different email clients. TB displays the following message "Downloading message 1 of 52" and then after some time the message disappears and no messages are downloaded. Is their a simple fix for this issue?

Disable McAfee email scanning, restart your device and try again. It is not a guarantee, but McAfee has been causing issues with mail since at least 2012.
