Unable to view any Inbox files in Thunderbird program or inbox.mozmsgs files in Profile
The Thunderbird program is not showing anything in the Inbox. I went to Default Profile then to Mail and then to the Local Folders and then to Inbox.mozmsgs folder. I can see the messages there, and I can see that they do have content. I have tried repairing the Inbox folder from the Thunderbird program; I have deleted the Inbox.msf file (all to no avail). Can someone please help me fix this?

anything with mozmag or wdseml in the file name exists for the sole purpose of allowing the windows search system access to search mail as it is not good at is. It is not your mail in Thunderbird really, just textual representations that contain no attachments and are mostly not complete.
Beside the MSF file will be another with your actual mail in it. It has no file extension. If a repair does not fix it your file is probably corrupt.
