Thunderbird crashes when it's been open for a long time
If i have it open for any long period, maybe 10 minutes, maybe an hour, i never really thought about it. But if it's been open a while and i write a email, when i try and send it it will sit there saying it's copying it to the sent folder (i think) endlessly. It never sends or closes that message. So i close it and when i try and open it again it tells me thunderbird is running and asks me if i want to close it. I choose yes and after about 10 seconds it opens again. Does anyone know what causes this?

What version of Thunderbird?
How is the account set up, as POP or IMAP? In Thunderbird the menu path is Tools->Account Settings->Server Settings->Server Type at the top right of the dialogue.
What is the target folder for storage of Sent messages? Find out using menu path Tools->Account Settings->Copies & Folders.
