I just added another e-mail provider to my list and now when I click on a received e-mail on any of the accounts I have, the e-mail does not show up

I added another e-mail account to my Thunderbird portable, but now although I am receiving new e-mails, when I click on them they open a new tab with the title of the e-mail on top, but the page stays empty, the e-mail itself does not appear, so I cannot read any of my e-mails.

It sounds like your mail files are corrupted. First of all create a backup of your Thunderbird profile folder. https://support.mozilla.org/kb/profiles-tb#w_backing-up-a-profile

Then try to rebuild the index file of the troubled folder. Right-click the folder - Properties - Repair Folder

Note: depending on the corruption this may erase messages from the affected folder which cannot be recovered anymore. In that case you'd need to restore them from a recent backup done prior to the corruption.

Corruption is often caused by anti-virus software messing with Thunderbird mail files. It is therefore recommended to create an exception for the Thunderbird profile folder, so that the real-time scanner won't attempt to scan the profile with your mail.
