Inbox is empty
This morning, my email Inbox is empty. I use Thunderbird for four email accounts, and three of them are fine, but the fourth one has an empty Inbox this morning. I didn't (intentionally, anyway) move the emails anywhere, and they do appear to be in the All Mail folder, so I didn't lose them entirely. But I keep my emails mostly in my Inbox and they aren't there anymore.
Any ideas what happened to make them disappear and how I can get them back to the Inbox?
Thanks!

Did you activate the Quick Filter toolbar by chance?
Not that I'm aware of. My display looks different from yours, but the Quick Filter box above my Inbox might have had the blue vertical bar set. Honestly, I don't know. I think I tried clicking it several times but nothing changed. I like your Inbox display better than mine. How do I get that one?
The Inbox in my screen shot looks different from yours, probably because I have activated the quick filter "Show only unread messages" in order to illustrate possible unwanted effects of those filters on the message list in the "Thread Pane". My Inbox doesn't contain unread messages, so the thread pane is empty. But my Inbox is NOT empty as you can see easily. Can you please do a similar screen shot showing your empty Inbox? Which Thunderbird version do you use?

Unfortunately, I can't show you the empty Inbox. I pulled a bunch of emails from the All Mail folder back into the Inbox so I could get back to using Thunderbird like I'm used to. Sorry.
But the whole format of your Inbox is different from mine. It doesn't have anything to do with what email are or aren't there; it's the layout that's different. Your layout looks like an Outlook Inbox.
