Email folders are empty but file is still over a gig big.

I have an email account that crashed. When I try and import the folders and files into thunderbird it does not show any of the emails. In the screenshot, the "thunderbird import" is the folder that was made after importing the old profile emails. But as you can see it is empty. I have tried the repair folder and it does not work. I see the inbox folder has over a gig of data but I have not found a way to import the data.

If you have any ideas that would be great.

If it is an IMAP account, I would guess all the mail is marked as deleted. Hence nothing to see or import.

Thanks but It is not an IMAP just a pop3.
