Hi, I have recently installed Thunderbird on a new PC (see below), and periodically get the error above when trying to send, either a newly composed email or a reply. Sometimes a restart of Tbird resolves the issue (temporarily), sometimes a reboot is required.

I've found the error log in the developers tools, and have pasted today's log below. I'd be very grateful if someone could take a look at this and suggest a solution.
