Thunderbird 91.3.1
If I start Thunderbird from the terminal, and then select any email message to read, I see the following error...
IPDL protocol error: Handler returned error code!
###!!! [Parent][DispatchAsyncMessage] Error: PClientManager::Msg_ForgetFutureClientSource Processing error: message was deserialized, but the handler returned false (indicating failure)
Google doesn't give any real clue about what an "IPDL protocol error" is.
To troubleshoot, I logged into a separate Ubuntu account where Thunderbird had never been used. I started Thunderbird from the terminal and created a mail account using one of my Google gmail accounts. Read any message, and got the same problem. So it's not an account-specific problem.
Partial log from terminal...

Any ideas what this error is about?
