   Since Mozilla Thunderbird updated to Version 38 I have had problems as   
   Jean did.   
      
   When I am Writing a Text Only message I often get a Popup telling me   
   it had problems, and I have to click an OK button to continue on.   
      
   Last November I chose to Compact TB and it wiped out every message that was   
   in the InBox.   
      
   I looked at TB Help for a solution but after I tried doing what Mozilla   
   suggested I still couldn't find those old InBox messages.   
      
   The funny thing about it is the messges that had been in my InBox where I   
   had made SubDirectories from the InBox to store them in, all were there   
   untouched from the compacting, still in each of the SubDirectories I made.   
      
   I hadn't made a Backup for several months prior to November 2015.   
   Ditto for MozBackup, Thanks Tom for suggesting MozBackup to me Long Time Ago.   
      
   So I suppose the several thousand Email messages are gone because I don't   
   keep them on the Server.   
      
   Another thing I'm seeing and I think it started before version 38 is if I   
   have read a Email and scroll the message window up or down to see a message   
   that isn't in view, if I pause a short time while scrolling, the message   
   window Pops back to the Underlined message that I had last read.   
      
   Anybody seeing things like I am seeing here? Thanks!
