thunderbird cannot connect to servers using secured pop or smtp conexions. The SSL protocol has been disabled.

Binary package hint: thunderbird

Launching thunderbird the following 2 error messages appear:

1)
"Could not initialize the browser's security component. The most likely cause is problems with files in your browser's profile directory.
Please check that this directory has no read/write restrictions and your hard disk is not full or close to full. It is recommanded that you exit the browser and fix the problem. If you continue to use this browser session, you might see incorrect browser behaviour when accessing security features."

2) Thunderbird can't connect securely to xxx because the SSL protocol has been disabled.

I have no problem of full disk or close to be full, neither problems with the directories/files rights.
