Mozilla vs. Thunderbird

Aug 31, 2004 9:55AM PDT

Ever since loading Thunderbird, Mozilla mail is only good for sending. It will not receive. I have tried all sorts of things including deleting both Mozilla 1.72 and Tbird 7.3 including entries under Windows and as many references as I can find to both programs in the register.

Tried to install Mozilla 1.5 with the same results.

Os is W98 SE.

Actually this is a minor inconvenience
as Firebird, which I just loaded seems to be faster than Mozilla anyway....but if anyone has a fix for this would be glad to know about it!

There was something wrong with the way the mail account was set up in Mozilla. I deleted it and installed a new account. All is working fine now. Just what the mistake was I dont know. Probably a typo of some kind!
