    I use it strictly for newsgroups. But the issue I was experiencing
    wasn't with Thunderbird, it was ES that went down. I've just had so
    many issues with Thunderbird that I couldn't tell the difference.

    Hmmm. With one exception (which cost me a lot of 3-5 year old e-mail
    archives and may have been hard drive related) Thunderbird's been good
    as gold for e-mail. It's been 3-4 years since I've done a test on it
    for newsgroups but think it failed on the binary groups which other
    than 3-4 text newsgroups (this is one of them) I'm mostly about
    binaries.

    Cox handed everybody’s email accounts over to yahoo and every time you
    tried to go anywhere to check any email it made you go in and authorize everything again and then one by one each account denied access and all the emails are lost forever for everyone.

    I tried Thunderbird but it was unable to make threads deeper than two,
    which was pointless for newsgroups.
