I recently ran into this problem too. Apparently thunderbird hadn't closed or needed to update or something.

On my system I ran /usr/lib/mozilla-thunderbird/thunderbird-bin by hand and up popped thunderbird. I'm going to guess it had actually been running in the background and the mozilla-client was having a hard time talking to it in its messed up state, but I didn't think to do a ps before I started it by hand. Closed thunderbird. And started it and now its running just fine.
