I have installed Thunderbird on 3 win10 computers.

I have installed my Gmail account to (POP3) and it works to all (sent / receive).

The crazy thing is that when I send mail from another account (Gmail) I receive only on 2 computers and not on the 3rd !!

Without any series it can be (1-3,2-3,1-2), I have set it to check every 1 minute

They all have the same settings, they are connected to the same network, they are exactly the same.

Thanks

Do you have the account set up with 'recent mode' on all computers? See the first section here. An IMAP setup would probably work better.

Setting View/Folders/Unified merges all Inbox and Sent folders into single folders. Further control with File/New/Saved Search.
