Archived more than 2000 emails... How to recover?

SuMo Bot

Hey there!

Using Thunderbird to backup my emails. I archived all my emails via select all and pressing "A" to archive.

I referred to this page (https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/archived-messages) and didn't clearly see the warning stating you should "not select more than 2,000 messages at a time". That being said, the first 3-5 thousand emails were properly archived (I setup archive folders into Month + Year format) while the remaining 10-15 thousand emails do not appear in the corresponding archive folders. How can I recover these emails?

I've tried looking through the Thunderbird support forum, also Googling in general, and haven't been successful in locating a solution. Please let me know if you've ran into this issue, a similar issue, or were able to successfully recover archived emails that are not appearing in their corresponding archive folder. Thanks in advance!
