You can retry or save the message locally to Local Folders/Sent" (no problem in internet connection, i am not faced any issue while using outlook, if i click send it will be send and only one copy is placed in sent folder. but in thunderbird many copy of that mail is keep on showing the error message.)

Who is the mail provider? Some services like gmail or outlook.com copy sent messages automatically to the Sent folder, so 'Place a copy in' in the Copies & Folders section of Account Settings must be unchecked, to avoid errors like the one you see, and duplicates. It could also be the result of an antivirus that is set to scan outgoing mail. What is the antivirus, and is the TB profile folder excluded from AV scanning?

Help/Troubleshooting, about:profiles, to see the profile folder location, then add it as an exclusion to Avast:

This is the general recommendation for all AV programs:

Does that eliminate the error?
