Hello, a few days ago thunderbird stopped fetching my IMAP messages from Gmail. it shows it's "connected to imap.gmail.com, but when I go to inbox all I see is the inbox tab keeps spinning. I tried to reinstall thunderbird and rebooted, but still, Thunderbird won't sync.

I attached the image to show what keeps happening.

If you are using ESET/NOD32 security/AV then probability is very high it is causing your problems. According to ESET forums, you should temporarily disable SSL on ESET until they solve the problem per https://support.eset.com/en/kb3126-disable-ssl-filtering-in-eset-windows-products?ref=esf - the problem is being reported by dozens of users https://forum.eset.com/topic/26517-problems-with-thunderbird-and-imaps/ https://forum.eset.com/discover/
