On a WINDOWS 7 PC (Dell Inspiron 15) Thunderbird was automatically updated June 12. After the update it can not get my email from my service provider (RCN). It seems to connect with pop.rcn.com but then it hangs, and no email comes.

Make sure Thunderbird isn't blocked by a personal firewall.

Thanks. The problem went away after two days. If Thunderbird was not automatically updated, the problem must have been RCN.
