I am running Thunderbird ver 128.1.1esr (32-bit) on a WIndows 10 PC.
Yesterday I noticed that emails from mid-December 2021 thru August 24, 2024 from my main email address Inbox had gone missing. Emails from noon on August 25, 2024 thru today are present.
I have about 80 sub or subsub-folders to the Inbox where I sort some of the emails mostly by filters but also some manually. As far as I have noticed, none of the emails in the subfolders are missing.
The Inbox (with emails from 1/1/20 thru 12/10/21) shows about 3,200 emails (this excludes those in the subfolders). My guess is that about 7,000 emails might be missing.
The missing emails were not in any Trash or other folders, or in the recycle bin.
The Trash folder for the Inbox has about 1,300 emails going back to March 2024 - all of which I had deleted
I have Inboxes from 4 other email addresses operating in Thunderbird, and none of those have been affected
I do a complete backup of my hard drive every night, so if there is a file that would have the missing emails, I should be able to recover them
1) Any ideas why the emails disappeared.
2) What steps can I take to recover the emails from my backups, or other.
Thanks in advance for any assistance.
