I am using Thunderbird 115.5.2 (64-bit) on an older iMac on OS 10.12. I have four email address accounts, all gmail, and using POP. I have stored emails I wanted to keep in sub folders in Local Folders. This has all worked well for years.

Yesterday I lost lost all content from some of the subfolders in Local Folders, while some retained some content and a few seem intact. I also lost most emails that had arrived in the inboxes in the last week. The folder pane still shows the accounts, with their own set of folders. As usual, the inbox folders are highlighted with the number of new emails downloaded from the Gmail server to each address, but I can not see them in the message pane, or find them anywhere else. I sent a test message from one of my addresses to another – It didn't show as sent in Thunderbird, but did go through the gmail server and the message count of downloaded messages on the recipient address went up by one, but I couldn't see the email. Then I tried clicking on the folder "properties" then 'Repair Folder' but nothing happened, although the information on that window showed the number of messages and MB that I would expect to be in that folder, rather than what was there, which presumably means they may still be in there somewhere? I would be very grateful for help – I'm not tech savvy and feeling completely lost.

I just created a new email account in Thunderbird. I've used T-bird for 15 years. Normally, when I highlight an inbox email and then press the keyboard "Delete" key, the message is sent to Trash. But on this new account, when I press Delete key, the message briefly disappears, but then comes back into my Inbox. It doesn't go to Trash.

I checked the Server setup and confirmed it is setup to move Deleted email to "Trash on xxx@xxxx.com"

I am flowing emails from Yahoo Mail into Thunderbird 128.13 on a Mac M3 in macOS Tahoe 26.1. Suddenly some Thunderbird folder names are greyed out and italicized, plus I seem to be missing emails in those folders. I've tried correcting it but cannot find anything that makes a difference, so where are my questions: Why does that happen? How can I correct it? Where are my missing emails? Thanks in advance! ~ Heath

Gjelder epost beta. Hvorfor får dere ikke til slik at vi brukere kan for andre navn på mapper. Skal du lagre en epost fra innboksen til mappe, så kommer det opp andre mapper/navn. Kunne gjerne se bare navnet på mappen og ikke med andre mapper/navn på mappene. Redigere navn på mappen hadde hvert greit. Ellers fungere epost veldig greit.
