I have recently installed new untangle firewalls ( untangle.com) in
Bridge mode at two office locations. Both offices collect mail from a
Fedora 9, postfix,dovecot server at location #1. Since the install of
the untangles i have been plagued by Thunderbird Errors while trying
to POP email.
The error says "RETR" command failed. If the user logs into the
webmail (Squirrelmail) on the mail server and cleans out his inbox by
deleting all existing mail, T-Bird starts operating again. This error
has repeated itself without a pattern i can identify dozens of time
over the last few weeks.
No other email client displays errors.
T-Bird = 2.0.0.16 on XP or Vista OS

Has anyone else seen this issue with T-Bird ?
