Hello,

Since a few days now, everytime I try to use Thunderbird it just get completely stuck on the Thunderbird Mail screen. Wherever I click, it gets stuck there.

I tried to disable the addons as one of the other ticket suggested, but I can't even open the Add-Ons window... Actually I can't open anything at all, nor write new emails.

However, it is still getting new messages... Can't see them unless I right click then "Open in new tab" though

Here is a screenshot of the page it is stuck on: http://screencast.com/t/f6Cnk0Vi

Sometimes when I click on other folders, it updates the page but it seems rather random.

- start Thunderbird in safe mode 

 https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/safe-mode

- go to tools | addons - remove the lightning addon - restart - start thunderbird - if you need the lightning addon, add it back at tools | addons

Does that help?
