Thunderbird has been working flawlessly for 3+ years until Monday Feb 11. Go to the office, turned on the computer, powered up Windows 7 (32bit) and launched TB-a very typical beginning of the work day routine. Until things went south...when I elected check for mail, I got a pop up window that said, and I DON'T quote "...TB refuses to connect to server"

I checked all my settings, password, IMAP port settings incoming and outgoing mail server settings. All credentials were correct, as I was double checking it all in mail.app on my mac which was fetching and sending with out a glitch. I disabled the fire wall as well as Norton anti virus to no avail! My tech support has been on this for countless hours and cannot understand what's going on.

Any and all help is truly and greatly appreciated!

Start the computer in Windows safe mode and then run TB. Although you tried disabling Norton without any benefit, the only way to definitely rule it, or any other external program, out as the source of the problem is to run in Windows safe mode.
