Bug Description

Binary package hint: thunderbird

After startup of Thunderbird , the left pane is not visible where I normally would find all of my 3 email boxes and the 'home box'. Now, only 1 emailbox is visible, while the machine asks me for the passwords of all 3 mailboxes (which is OK). After submitting these passwords nothing changes however.

Thunderbird 2.0.0.18
Ubuntu 2.6.24-22-generic

There might be a correlation with a problems and programm use shorty before this failure (?)
Yesterday I encountered a problem in Audacity 1.3.4 beta: Audacity refused to cancel an exportation order (MP3 to MP3) that was pursuing. Nothing moved in the font. Next I couldn't redo or do anything, and the programm wouldn't quit. Everything was fixed and nothing would move. So I enforced a quit by unplugging the electricity to the computer. After a restart I removed Audacity from Ubuntu, and, after a new restart, downloaded and installed Audacity again. After starting it up, Audacity told me that continuing would cause a sever problem because the Temporary files were filled up (it could even lead to the crashing of my computer...). Next I couldn't stop Audacity and even the Ubuntu log off button disappeared when I wanted to stop the computer!
After several restarts and working with different programmas, to my surprise Audacity started up well again.

This problem of Audacity not reacting to the cancel button (when exporting) I experenced more often, but then I always could quit Audacity afterwards. It didn't work out that way now. If relevant in any way (?): Just before this new Audacity problem occurred I worked with the Bit Torrent programm (for the first time) letting this run for long hours to download some files.

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. We are sorry that we do not always have the capacity to look at all reported bugs in a timely manner.
There have been many changes in Ubuntu since that time you reported the bug and your problem may have been fixed with some of the updates. It would help us a lot if you could test the current Ubuntu development version (10.04). If you can test it, and it is still an issue, we would appreciate if you could upload updated logs by running apport-collect 307106, and any other logs that are relevant for this particular issue.
