I've been a power user of Thunderbird for many years now, and this is the first time I've come across this issue.

Suddenly yesterday, without warning, the display of messages in my Inbox have vanished.

The mail items are still there. When I click or use my arrow buttons to move up or down, the preview display pane correctly shows the emails.

When I reply, the emails look normal as well.

Other folders render correctly. It's just the Inbox.

I restarted the program, then shut down and rebooted my laptop. Has not resolved the issue.

Isisombululo esikhethiwe

Hi edward, It looks like the column headers for your inbox are empty. Could you try the following steps: 1) Go to a folder that displays correctly and click on the column headers selector as circled in the image. 2) Then use the "Apply Columns to" option on the Inbox folder to clone the columns to be displayed.

You may also discover it works if you select 'Inbox' click on same icon as advised previously Select 'REstore column order'

Otherwise, if it fails then follow advise by HKSim.
