OT: Stupid Thunderbird Problem

[Victor Odhner]

Thanks, Eric.

Your comments led me to follow several angles, but nothing worked. But it steered me in a direction that got past the error.

At one point I bought Growl but found that the link for Thunderbird is locked out.

Then I found a page about Mozilla logging:

    https://wiki.mozilla.org/MailNews:Logging <https://wiki.mozilla.org/MailNews:Logging>

I ran Thunderbird from the command line to turn on logging.

It didn’t log anything, just a start-up message, but Thunderbird did not have the error in that mode.  I finished moving my emails to the Zoho account.

So, thanks for the support. You sort of nudged me towards a solution. I guess I’ll never know what the complaint was from Zoho.

Check for notifications in the system preferences. There’s a notifications preferences pane and in there will be the apps that have accessed it. You can also change the amount of time that the message will display.

Btw, I have the same issue when trying to read notifications with the screen reader.

Btw, you can also try control+option+F1 and see if the notifications show up in there (they do on my high Sierra system).
