My Thunderbird In-Box is corrupted so I am running a Repair. The BT IMAP Server randomly fails on the FETCH command and doesn't reply with all requested.

After this my InBox is littered with blank messages all with the same timestamp. InBox has 6000 messages (I know!!)

Is there a way to repair just the failed? Is there a way to get the Repair to retry on failure? Maybe reduce the size of the Block on a Fetch? Any other solutions, or just wait for BT to fix their server (I have messaged them)?

Thanks Jon

This is the error message I get. BT seem to think it is a client problem and not a server problem.

I have tried setting the Maximum No of Sever Connections to cache to 1. This doesn't seem to have changed anything.
