Nothing happening when checking mail script manually

Using Postie v1.9.14

I have checked to see if I have the correct information for mailserver and user and port and so forth, and the Test Config button confirms that I have that right and that a connection can be made. No problem there.

BUT, when I click Process Email the WP Dashboard refreshes, and I see Postie Settings but nothing else. It does not appear to do anything; there is no response that email has been checked or anything. (There is no usual WordPress dashboard footer, either, so I think there is a PHP script error that is not shown.)

Yet, when I click the Debug button, I see that Postie is busy at work:

post_email: Done

Mail fetch complete, 1 emails

So it looks like in Debug mode that Postie sees there is mail to retrieve. Yet when actually creating the post it fails.

I suppose I should disable some plugins and see if there is a conflict, but wondering if anyone else has had this problem?
