Build Identifier: version 2.0.0.22 (20090605)

When I try to check my mail I always get the message. "This folder is being processed. Please wait until processing is complete to get messages".

I believe this is happening because thunderbird crashed when I was trying to move some e-mails from the infolder to another folder.

The infolder seems to be locked by some process. Is there any way to unlock the infolder??


Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Click on the inbox
2. the alert box pops up, no mails are displayed.
3.

Please report if you can provide further evidence for this.
It has been reported in bug 466933 to happen after resuming from sleep mode, perhaps that was the reason?

Unfortunately, no. Only restarting TB will unlock it.

These steps aren't sufficient.
Unless there is more information, I think we can consider this a duplicate of 466933 or 152675.
