I upgraded my Ubuntu AMD 64 bit machine to 10.04. With that came Mozilla Thunderbird 3, which works OK for a while than just disappears. Hardware: Am I alone in having this problem? |

How about you search the bug reports at launchpad and maybe you will find some relevant answers to your problem. |

I suggest that you disable the indexing option of Thunderbird 3 as a starting point to see if that is causing the process to die. I was having similar problems with TB3 on a 64 bit system about a month ago. To do this: Tools -> Options -> Advanced Under General Tab, uncheck the indexer option. |

I am sitting on a AMD64 running Ubuntu (Dual with Mint) and I have had a problem with Thunderbird hanging the system but never disappearing. Thunderbird gets confused when your files are large - especially Archive - and that is overcome by compacting the folders. If it were me I would back up my files and then do a complete removal and reinstall. When you say disappears if you mean from the menu you might right click on the menu and select "reload plugings" to put it back. A little more help as to what's going on when it disappears would help a bit too. |
I've not had such a problem, try lunching Thunderbird in the terminal with
thunderbird, that way when it exits you might get some clues.could you give more details of what happens? what's the last thing you do before it disappears? is it always after a fixed amount of time? how big is your email? did you change any settings in ThunderBird?
