pardon the top posting.
I made a minor change to the security settings that Webmasters omitted
(or said Not to do) in their documentation for the security upgrades on
their servers, and it's working again. a couple thousand messages to
clean and sort, but my will filters do 97% of that.
I will message their support and help them correct their error.
thanks for listening.

maybe that's why Thunderbird can't use a mailing list, they don't trust

first, thanks for all of the input and wise suggestions
I am going crazy with Thunderbird, and Claws too.
Now Claws has a calendar add-on, did not try it but maybe it will
suffice.
My longtime web and email host support have been struggling to help

IMP vs POP ...the "web" seems to reverse the definitions! I don't know
who to trust
I really want to keep messages on their server, space is Not an issue.
Question: with IMAP is it feasible for a mail client to Leave messages

I am a long time user of Thunderbird. No real complaints, but the GUI
has been slowly been changed.
lately I have been struggling with that, trying to get it to be My
Way. Minor success.
also the .msf files have gotten Huge and that hinders rapid and easy
backups.
In the process I would like to do some housekeeping, fix a few
filters and rearrange my copious folders.
Question: do you folks recommend migrating to Claws Mail?
the initial look and feel seems to be familiar and comfortable, but I
know little of the history and stability.
secondly, will I be missing the basic features such as Filters?
thanks in advance.
