I have been running puppy linux for a couple of years but recently the email client - Thunderbird - has locked up. I was transferring my files to another computer and was downloading my emails anew. After about downloading about 100 messages I got the error message 'RETR command failed' and I was unable to download any more messages. I created a sub-folder on my inbox and moved all the emails there but it did not help The RETR command had not succeeded and I got an error message reading ' Error retrieving a message. Mail server pop3.mypostoffice.co.uk responded: No such blob: mailbox=39330, item=2360, change=7300 '. I have no way of knowing whether this problem is in seamonkey or thunderbird but I urgently need to get thundebird OK again. Thanks for any assistance you can give.
