I've just had a rather bad time with my Debian/Jessie AMD64 system.
I had to reset it yesterday after a hardware-related lockup (it
doesn't like my optical drive connected to an add-in PCIe SATA card -
usually freezes after writing an ISO image to DVD). The lockup
wouldn't respond to sysrq so I needed the reset button.
Trying to get back up was painful. I finally got it back by
reverting to SysV Init, which fortunately was an option on the Grub
menu.
However now that it's running, I'm having a weird problem with
Icedove. I can't receive e-mail on any of the accounts it's
configured to check. Moreover, I have three accounts that it's not
showing the inbox, etc. for. These are all configured for pop e-mail
and the e-mail folders are all on a single NFS share that is also
used by the accounts that are showing the inboxes, etc..
The e-mail in the folders that I can see are complete - back to the
time the machine froze, but nothing since.
Interestingly, when I try to Get Messages on an account, I get the
status bar message <e-mail account>: Connected to <pop server name>.
I tried uninstalling and re-installing Icedove but nothing changed.
I can access the accounts via their web-mail interfaces.
I tried sending this message via Icedove but it failed to send. I
just get the "sending message" box and status bar.
Any ideas?
I don't know if it will help you, but it is possible that somehow your
Icedove configuration has become corrupted - have you tried moving it
out of the way so Icedove can't find it, before starting Icedove and
setting it up again?
I don't use Icedove, but I just installed it to see what it creates,
and I would move at least ~/.cache/icedove and ~/.mozilla out of the
way.
Just a suggestion.

Perhaps. I'm leaning at this point to doing a fresh install of Jessie
(after saving /etc) to see if I can get it boot using systemd.
I also tried removing and recreating an account. When I did, I get an
error message after filling in the initial dialogue box (Your name,
email address, Password).
Error in errorCallback for fetchhttp
[Exception... "Component returned failure code: 0x804b0033

I don't know which package would be generating that message but it
looks like it could be the source of the problem.
