Using the latest Beta version I have had two issues over the last week. These occurred after I powered up in the AM and launched Thunderbird. In the first instance all the messages that were downloaded (about 20) would only display in HTML code. In the second instance about 20 downloads were replaced by an email I had received 3 years ago, displayed without a sender or a recipient in the message. Once downloaded, I can't figure our how to download these messages again (correctly I hope). I had to read the messages on my phone. Help.

I am tired of this, this is exactly the same issue that has occurred in Thunderbird for more than a decade and it most usually caused by antivirus programs scanning in the Thunderbird profile.

There is a properties on the right click menu in the folder, use it and select repair. It has been a standard response to misaligned indexes (which is what you are describing with wrong message or html/ message sources. The repair option has been there since V3 at least.
