And where is the mailbox saved for the one that keeps losing emails? You should be certain they are set in a location that is always going to be writeable and not going to be unavailable at any time (e.g. USB drive). I have not had this problem, lots of email accounts, all set up for POP3 access, messages left on server until deleted.

I wonder if there is a bug in Thunderbird that causes a problem with pop3 accounts? If the problem account is your only one using pop3, I'd be inclined to think that might be the problem. If you are fairly sure it is a Thunderbird problem, check out if all your other accounts are imap. If so, ubuntu-bug thunderbird, using the terminal would be the way to go, I imagine. </blockquote> </body> </html>
