I have 3 email accounts in Thinderbird.

Thunderbird doesn't retrieve messages form gmail.

I created an gmail account in Windows Mail app and it retrieved the massages with no issue.

There are 10 emails sitting in gmail and Thunderbird doesn't get them. I've removed the account and recreated it. I right clicked the account in the nav pane and selected Get Massages and it didn't find any. I get no error messages.
