emails in certain folders "disappear"

Post by gutenberg918 »

I don't know how long this has been going on but I just noticed that in a few of my folders (subfolders of inbox) that a majority of the emails disappear from view. I repaired the folder and all the email came back. But when I went to another folder and then back, the email was gone again. I have done a compress. I have copied the email to a new folder within the inbox and copied the data to a new folder in local folders. Each time with the same results.
How do I fix this?
Thanks for any help you can give.

How is the account set up in Thunderbird, as POP or IMAP? Find out using menu path Tools->Account Settings->Server Settings->Server Type at the top right of the dialogue.
