Bug Description

thunderbird does not download messages from gmail via pop3, a have app 30000 messages on gmail, thunderbird dowloaded app 18000 and showed notification "No messages to download"

At beginning, Thunderbird dowloaded messages by portions of 350 messages. During the time the amount was redused, last 10 hours the portion size was 1-2 messages, and now "No messages to download". Nevertheless on google I have at least 10000 messages and at least 100 unread messages.

Thunderbird dowloaded the older messages and failed to download the never ones.

I tried that tutorial steps in different combinations - with both username and e-mail instead the username, with "recent:" and without that, with tick on option "hold messages on server" and without the tick.

That exercises gave result, now I am downloading the rest of my messages in portions of 300-400 per each portion.

Why I thing it may be a thunderbird's bug? Because I did not experience such problems with Outlook Express or TheBat!

That version is no more supported; and no expecting backport as it only concern 'security' problem.
