Thunderbird doesn’t get messages from pop3 accounts, only imap
Ubuntu 24.04, Thunderbird 128.1.0esr (64-bit)
I have a mix of POP and IMAP accounts. All are read when starting Thunderbird, I receive the messages. But then, only the IMAP accounts get the messages, whatever the configuration of the Server Settings. I.e. no messages for the POP accounts from "Check for new messages every X minutes", nor from "Get Messages". I have to restart Thunderbird to get the new messages for the POP accounts.
Everything worked well before, this problem happens since I have upgraded Xubuntu from 22.04 to 24.04, where the Thunderbird package switched to a mandatory Snap, where it upgraded to 128.1.0.

Are the pop accounts all separate? Or did you create them with the global inbox (deferred account) account type?
The POP accounts all share the same global Inbox. I.e. in "Advance Account Settings", the option "Inbox for different account" is checked.
Do you think this setting became problematic with version 128?
