Tabs and Inbox disappearing

Just this morning when Thunderbird opened my inbox was blank. I toggled up to the account, and then back down to the inbox, and it loaded all my emails (the Get Messages button didn't work for this). However, it doesn't last. I timed it before and it went blank again after about 10-minutes. Also, when I open a new email and it opens in a new tab, that tab will get exed out after about the same amount of time. Anyone else having this issue?

Chosen solution

This appears to be an Owl problem introduced with v0.7.7.2. By now v0.7.7.4 is out. You may want to give it a try, and restart Thunderbird after updating the add-on. Please report back your results.

Seems to have worked. It's been about 30-minutes and the email I opened to test is still open and my inbox hasn't disappeared. Thanks!
