If problem happens when no route to internet(phone cable is pulled of from
modem), it's perhaps one of next;
- timeout in DNS server access
- Tb's problem when PC's IP address is changed by DHCP retention,
DNS cache is not cleared, ...
If problem happens when other software like broweser can access to intenet
normally, other component of Tb like SMTP can send mail, other mail client can
access ...gmail.com with no problem even though Tb fails with "looked up
gmail.com", ..., etc.,
it's perhaps one of next;
- timeout in DNS server access i Tb
- Tb's problem when PC's IP address is changed by DHCP retention,
DNS cache is not cleared, ... (known issues)
If you can reproduce your problem consistently, do following, please.
(i) Before try to access server from Tb, go Work Offline, then go Work Online.
This disconnects from server, and restart network connection from scratch.
IIRC, DNS cache related issue, IP address change relate issue, is bypassed by
this.
(ii) Get DNS server access log with timestamp.
See bug 402793 comment #28.

Title:
Thunderbird complains there is no connection on resume from suspend,
when there is a connection
Status in Mozilla Thunderbird Mail and News:
Confirmed
Status in “thunderbird” package in Ubuntu:
Triaged
Bug description:
Binary package hint: thunderbird
When I resume from suspend, network manager quickly re-establishes a
WiFi internet connection. With an active connection, I try to check
my mail with Thunderbird, but it complains that it can't connect to
the IMAP server. This seems to happen after longer suspend periods
because if I try to replicate the behaviour by quickly suspending and
resuming (suspend of a few seconds), I get no warning.
