Hi Frank,

I think I have found the bug, and am fixing it for the next release, but
just to be sure that it's the same bug you're seeing, can you please run
Claws Mail in debug mode?

You can do so by adding a --debug switch either to the desktop
shortcut, or executing this from a text console (cmd.exe):

"c:\program files (x86)\claws mail\claws-mail.exe" --debug

Then, in Claws Mail, try one unsuccesful download like you described,
exit Claws Mail, and send me resulting debug file, which should be in
c:\users\yourusername\appdata\local\temp\claws-win32.log.

Thanks,
