Suddenly this morning my Thunderbird inbox is totally blank i.e. it is not showing my e-mails even though it is indicates I have 9 new messages. No filters applied! My second e-mail address inbox is showing new and opened inbox messages as per normal.
My inbox ias totally blank all of a sudden - I have 9 new messages and many opened old messages but none are showing up. 10 minutes ago the inbox was operating normally!

Try these, in order. Helped me with separate issues:
Issues with mail/mail folders disappearing. The following works for me under Windows 7, 8, & 10 (NOTE: I was looking for specific emails from someone. Not sure what other corrupted files existed.)
- Help->More Troubleshooting Information->Profile Folder (Open Folder)
Should send you to something like C:\Users\{USER}\AppData\Roaming\Thunderbird\Profiles\@@@@####.default-release
- Click on IMapMail
- Search *.msf and delete them all
- Start Thunderbird and let it run for a while (may take a long time to recreate the MSF databases if you have many emails) ... I went to lunch. Missing mail/mail folders MAY re-populated under another folder! This happened to the emails I was looking for. I moved the emails to the correct sub-folder.
The auto updater has screwed up some of my setting and glitched Thunderbird Performing a "Clean" re-install over your existing installation. Please follow these steps:
- Download the latest version of Thunderbird from http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/thunderbird/ and save the setup file to your computer.
- After the download is complete, close all Thunderbird windows (Click Exit/Quit from the menu button on the right).
- Run the setup file downloaded in item 1
I hope this helps.
