Thunderbird stops responding when downloading messages
Running the latest Thunderbird on Windows 10. When downloading new messages or refreshing, the application freezes with the (Not Responding) error in the title bar for ~5 minutes before you can view the messages and work in Thunderbird again.
- There is no antivirus installed beside Windows Defender. - There is no excess of filters or folders. - Windows 10 was restarted in safe mode and so was Thunderbird with no results. - There is no delay when sending messages, only receiving.
The emails are pulled from a Google Suite account at UC Berkeley.
