Suddenly .... Folders show that they contain messages but the message list window is empty. If I '"repair folder", the list of messages is restored. But i have to go through that painful process for each folder, and i have many accounts and folders. And if Tbird is closed and reopened, the problem still exists - even 'repaired' folders do not display their messages.

Version 91.8.1, Win 10

Open your Thunderbird profile folder, Quit Thunderbird then search for *.msf files and delete them. Launch Thunderbird. See Profiles - Where Thunderbird stores your messages and other user data

This is the equivalent of Repair Folder for all folders in one go.
