Thunderbird

[JohnLWebb]

I just installed thunderbird from the ports. After completing the wizard to connect to a gmail account, I can't get it to check mail or send mail. It just sits there. No errors appear in the error console. After clicking GetMail, there isn't even a visual indication that anything is happening.

Am I missing something?

Thunderbird-2.0.0.23
FreeBSD 7.2
KDE 3.5

I intentionally selected link in my previous post, because it addresses 2 possible problems

Yea, it does not seem to matter whether I try pop or imap, Thunderbird just sets there apparently doing nothing. No feedback, error messages or other visual indicators that anything at all is happening...

I deinstalled and rebuilt from the ports and now it works. I had used a package install. Thanks for the guides...
