[Bug 891163] [NEW] after resume, statusbar stays at "connected to server"

 

Public bug reported:

My Dad has a POP email account in Thunderbird 7.0.1 under Ubuntu 11.10.
After resume from suspend (on same network; cf bug #795342), when he
clicks "Get mail," the Thunderbird statusbar only says "Connected to
my.server.com." Thunderbird is not hung--buttons are responsive and he
can still access his downloaded mail, but he has to Get Mail again
before it will retrieve messages and clear the statusbar to indicate
that retrieval is complete. Sometimes he only needs to press it once
after the first time, but occasionally he needs to press it multiple
times.

** Affects: thunderbird (Ubuntu)
     Importance: Undecided
         Status: New

** Description changed:

- My Dad has a POP email account in Thunderbird under 11.10. After resume
