But I can see it in https://mail.yahoo.com/d/folders/1?.intl=us&.partner=sbc&.lang=en-US.

Email has started downloading to Thunderbird again.

But how do I download the missing day or two of emails I can see of Firefox?

Are you using a Pop account in Thunderbird ? I'm assuming the answer is yes. Did you access webmail and read those few emails that did not get downloaded to pop account ? If yes, then logon to webmail account: Make sure those emails are in the 'Inbox' as pop can only acces Inbox and also set those emails as 'unread', then in Thunderbird, click on 'Get Messages'.

Thank you for your answer. It is still not downloading.

I wonder if I messed something up by reading some msgs on my phone.

It shouldn't but that's the only activity this weekend that I can remember doing.
