Thunderbird problem -

[Bob Goodwin]

Thunderbird has stopped providing an indication of activity after I 
click on "Get Mail." Normally there is information presented at the 
bottom left of the display in what they apparently call the "Status Bar" 
where I can see that DNS is working and it connects, etc., to me 
essential information. Since late yessterday I find my self clicking on 
Get Mail multiple times and nothing seems to happen until a message just 
happens to come along?

I don't know if it is a new feature or if I have inadvertently done 
something wrong while working on my Thunderbird mail files.

Seamonkey mail still displays that activity, Thunderbird only shows a 
useless tally of Unread/Read messages in the status bar. Hopefully it is 
just a configuration setting?

This is Fedora 20/64bit, XFCE, Thunderbird 24.3.0, F-20 updated a few 
hours ago.

Any help restoring things will be appreciated.

Bob
