115.05 when I started.
I typically open Thunderbird about once a month, download my emails from a hosted website, do some clean up, write some emails, close Thunderbird, and do the same about a month later.
Today I opened Thunderbird, saw that it was downloading around 400 emails in the lower left corner, and waited patiently, as per usual. When "done", however, none of them showed up in the main window. The latest email did not change, was still from around a month ago. When I ask Thunderbird to Get Messages it says there are no new emails to download.
I restarted Thunderbird several times, no change.
I then upgraded to 115.10, hoping this might fix the issue, but it has not.
Since restarting Thunderbird, 2 new emails have come in and are showing correctly, but none of the initial 400 emails "downloaded" today are showing anywhere.
I repaired the Inbox folder (right click > Properties > Repair Folder), no help.
I renamed the "Inbox.msf" file and had Thunderbird rebuild it, no help.
I renamed the "global-messages-db.sqlite" file and had Thunderbird rebuild it, no help.
View Ignored Threads does not help.
View > Threads > All is selected.
Emails are not in the Trash folder, or any other folder.
All of the initial batch of 400 emails - and the emails I had previously opened - just disappeared.
Opening up the Inbox MBOX file directly, I can see that these 400 emails were never actually downloaded into this file. Not sure what happened.
Opening up my remote email host, I can see that those 400 emails are still there, to the exact point when I last closed Thunderbird.
Asking Thunderbird to download new messages does not download these remote emails.
How do I reset Thunderbird to start the process over and re-download these emails again? Part of TB seems to think it's already downloaded these emails, while another part of TB never actually did.
Does anyone have any idea what to do here?
