What is going on and what are you trying to do?
Mine constantly wants to compact folders, and if it also downloading
emails, they conflict and I get that message, which is proper and not a
bug. There are some settings for how often it will try to compact at

compacting when it will save over 100 KB. I just now set it for 250 KB.

The trade of is how long it takes to compact folders.

I get an important Email, go to Thunderbird to read it, and have to wait
a reasonably long time to read it as Thunderbird thrashes doing who
knows what. I don't remember previous versions doing this:-(.

I'll set the compacting parameter. Perhaps I should archive my inbox.

Thanks

It takes reasonably long time before I can get my Emails. Thunderbird is
evidently "indexing" at this time. How can this be stopped?

I usually leave Thunderbird running all the time, with staggered
downloads of email from various accounts. That allow it do most of the
indexing when I have it minimized. I also have them all put into Local
Folders inbox, and have filters that then move them by categories into
several dozen folders and sub folders. That keeps the email count per
folder a lot smaller, and cuts the time for processing down.
