Stopped receiving email in thunderbird, but can receive it in server's webmail, even though no changes in passwords or thunderbird version used.

Talked to tech help on my server; no problem there. Problem just popped up about a week ago. I can even send myself an email from thunderbird site and never receive it there, but get it on my server's webmail. I can also send an email from the server's webmail and immediately receive it on that webmail site, but not receive it on thunderbird. What's wrong?
