I know it is there in v12 too.

Since 24.3.0 is the current version, the best bet would be to leave all
ancient versions alone and use that. However, I don't know what you were
doing wrong, but I have never had any freezing with any version of
Thunderbird from its inception many years ago.

Same here. I've been using Thunderbird for email since version 0.2 and
have never experienced any "freeze ups." I have 15 email accounts, and
three news accounts.

It's most likely just another BillW50 self-inflicted individual problem.
Others need not worry.
