I had the same problem with one of the groups I was getting with lots of 
pictures in it. One of the email messages on the server was corrupt, and 
Thunderbird kept giving me that message. I went online and deleted all 
my messages from the server and then Thunderbird stared to receive all 
the messages OK.
