Yes. I have seen this behavior pop up from time to time, but definitely has been more troublesome lately. I connect via IMAP and also notice that there are often significant delays when accessing folders other than my Inbox... not sure if this is just a Thunderbird thing or not, but definitely a bit annoying. All the best.
