Why does Thunderbird require continuous relogin to the Eternal-September news server ? I am running Windows 10 Pro x64 with 16 GB of ram. TB 78.11.0. I have deleted the E-S password several times. Thanks, Lynn

Still using 38/linux with no interest in changing. If I do something
else for a while, when I come back it demands <something>. If I just
switch to a different newsgroup and instantly back again things work
normally. It's been this way for several years. Just choosing a
different message doesn't work, I have to go to a different newsgroup.
I liken it to banging the side of the TV to bring back the picture :-(

My news reader is SLRN & either E-S or slrn "times out" sometimes; even when I am have not finished writing & doing a post. Somehow I get a msg when I finally post, I do see the msg saying I just go relogin. And there is need to relogin if I wait too long to read a post; but it is 'automatically'. It has happened like that for years on the text news reader. If you keep deleting your id/password TB cannot relogin automatically since it could not fine the password? SLRN is derived from unix tin, I think, & haven't been changed for a very very long time.

Try setting mail.server.default.max_cached_connections to 4 or less in about:config (Config Editor at the bottom of General Preferences).

I have: mail.server.server4.max_cached_connections, mail.server.server5.max_cached_connections, mail.server.server7.max_cached_connections; all set to a value of 2. Thanks, Lynn
