Ok What is happening is that that little pop up that used to tell you you got mail from = then a list of your incoming emails pops up with descrilptions etc. That used to be a little tiny notice in the lower portion of my DeskTop. Now it comes up and Blocks my entire Desktop and I can't do anything to make it go away except wait for it to go away on it's own. It's killing my productivity and I'm thinking of installing Something else except I've come to rely on Thunderbird. Can you PUH___LEEEZ? Fix This?????? See Screen Shot!

Is it the number of notifications in the popup or the duration of the popup that concerns you? The latter can be adjusted in Tools/Options/General, click the Customize... button.

NO! The problem is the popup covers my entire screen! On a full size DeskTop 32" Monitor! Please see the screen grab of my Monitor! Why is this happenting?

Does it look the same in safe mode? Hold Shift when you launch TB. Personally, I prefer the kind of notification provided by the Unread Badge add-on.
