Or the hardware is broken. Running a specfic program may exercise the

do not.
If the OP runs Debian OOTB, okay. But, Gene does anything but that.
I don't deny that David. after all, I build these things to do something
useful to me. And OOTB is a huge impediment to getting what I want to
do, done. I willingly play lab rat for several applications, or canary
in the coal mine, both scenarios fit. But I didn't expect to be used as
a lab rat for an email program. Basic stuff like that , because the
whole planet is using it, should just work. The current debian supplied
t-bird doesn't. This mozilla's beta, and if I can recreate the filters
it will work just fine. But I've not yet found the automatic filter
generator. I do have other irons in the fire.
Thank you. Take care of #1 David.
