Bug Description
When using an IMAP server and set Thunderbird to empty trash on exit, Thunderbird doesn't quit. When you press the cross button on the title list, Thunderbird closes all its windows, but the process always stays in memory.
You can't start Thunderbird again with this option, it says it is still running. You need to kill the process first.
Unchecking "empty on exit" when using IMAP and you can start Thunderbird repeatedly.
(When using POP it always works as expected.)
Ubuntu 10.04
Thunderbird 3.1.15+

Hello Patrik,
Thank you for submitting this bug and reporting a problem with "empty trash on exit" in Thunderbird.
You made this bug report in 2011 and there have been several versions of Ubuntu and Thunderbird since then.
Could you confirm that this is no longer a problem and that we can close the ticket?
Or, if it is still a problem, could you run the following (only once):
apport-collect 898531
and upload the updated logs and and any other logs that are relevant for this particular issue.
Thank you again for helping make Ubuntu and Thunderbird better.
