Thunderbird 'hangs' on Send

Last Saturday, with no warning or outward signs of errors, after I had constructed (from Template) a standard response to an incoming email and pressed send (as I do several time a week) that email failed to send, instead going to Drafts after a minute or so. No error messages shown.

I have 4 accounts set up on TB (and have had for the past year) two standard hosted accounts, one Virgin Media (all POP) and one Gmail. Same problem on all of them.

This is all quite beyond me - everything else works fine, I'm still receiving email OK (about 20 or so a day), and the last I successfully sent was Friday evening.

However I create an email - from scratch, a forward or reply - pressing Send dims out the top Send/Encrypt/Spelling/Save line, and my email address just below that; and I don't get the 'sending' message in the body of the email. After a couple of minutes more the Send button goes black again - if I press it again the 'transfer into Drafts cycle' starts again.

I've compacted the drafts folder in each account but I can't seem to do anything which will stop TB hanging on 'send'.

Any thoughts - before I go for the nuclear action and change mail apps? I use k9 on my phone with the same set of accounts with no problem (except my fat fingers!)

From your post, it appears the problems began after creating the template. And why the 'threat' about switching clients? Volunteers here are not on commission.

Apologies - not intended as anything but an expression of frustration at the prospect of possibly having to recreate my mail structure after trying to find a solution in the help files.!

The templates (6) are over 9 months old and my 'test' emails were created both with and without them, from responses to incoming mail, from drafts, and from scratch.

In a German forum it was discussed that the Cardbook extension causes this problem. It worked for all except me to disable it. So if anyone comes up with an additional solution I would greatly appreciate it.

This was fixed in Cardbook 95.3, latest is 95.5.
