Periodically Thunderbird will fail to send a message, place it in the outbox and then start selecting multiple messages whereever I click.

Running on Windows 7 with latest Thunderbird but this has been happening for at least a year on two different Win 7 computers. Tried restarting Thunderbird which wants to force me into safe mode but does not fix it. Only a Windows restart fixes this issue. I have a third Win7 computer on which this has never happened. Thanks for your help in fixing this. Dave (dabineri@swva.net)

No, It happens once every week or two, just happened today, and I rarely am in Win safe mode. One never knows when it will happen.
