Similarly the "Downloading X of Y in." message count slows down or stops.Ħ. After a while, the "Bringing folder XXX up to date" progress bar starts moving very slowly, or stops moving altogether. (You may be more likely to observe the bug for folders with large numbers of messages.)ĥ. Open the Activity Manager window and watch what happens when Thunderbird tries to synchronize some folders. Set the IMAP account to synchronize folders locally.Ĥ. Create an IMAP account in Thunderbird and point it to the DavMail server.ģ. Install DavMail 3.8.7 or earlier and configure it as an IMAP gateway to an Exchange server.Ģ. The timeout problem also occurs sometimes when trying to download individual messages.ġ. Even the DavMail author mentions the timeout issue in the DavMail FAQ at and suggests adjusting the *.timeout value I tried increasing this from 29 to 240 but the problem persists. Other people have also noticed this issue - see, for example. I suspect that this is a problem with Thunderbird rather than with DavMail, as other e-mail clients, such as KMail and Evolution, seem to have no problem with DavMail. This essentially makes it impossible to synchronize folders. The timeout messages appear over and over again. Sometimes I think it stops incrementing altogether. The first number in "Downloading 26 of 83." line increments exceedingly slowly maybe once every five or ten minutes. Thunderbird seems to have great difficulty synchronizing folders the Activity Manager window will show a task of the following form:ĭownloading 26 of 83 in to server timed out. I have the IMAP account in Thunderbird set up to synchronize folders. I have it version 3.8.7 installed locally and use Thunderbird to retrieve my mail from it.
