[Bug 1007600] [NEW] Thunderbird freezes when Internet is disable.

[Launchpad Bug Tracker]

Hi,

I’ve openned Thunderbird since I was on a “free-wifi” connection unset: each connection to the Internet were redirected to a page asking to type a login/password of the Internet service provider.  Thunderbird was trying to connect to each of my account and of course got no correct response.  I guess a normal behavior would have been to switch to “offline-mode”, but Thunderbird did not really response (it update the screen when I move it, but I could do anything with the interface — even make it switch to offline mode!).
I’ve thus disable the Internet.  Thunderbird just froze.

I do not know what did happens, but when I killed Thunderbird (after
Apport collected informations), enable Internet *and* give my
login/password to the Internet service provider, then start Thunderbird,
it works well.

It seems that there are some problem left with such connections.

Hoping that can help.
Martin.
