I seem to remember Thunderbird 3 came up through a hole in a building. 
Seemed like a great idea but I always wondered what it was like trying 
to reverse a rocket to get back in there.  Glad it wasn't my house...

But anyway - I run Thunderbird 3 under Gnome (Fedora12) and I've not 
noticed the behaviour you describe.  I only have it set up to get mail 
from the local mbox as I use fetchmail in daemon mode to collect my mail 
from various places and dump it there, so it is unlikely to get hung up 
whilst fetching mail.  I keep a CPU monitor on the task-bar so I'd have 
noticed by now if CPU were getting consumed when it ought to be fairly 
idle.  In fact there are often two of us logged on to separate Gnome 
sessions with a copy of Tbird running in each all day.  A KDE thing then?
