I had a missed click while using Thunderbird and "something" happened. Now I can't see a couple emails AT ALL in Thunderbird, they are missing from search and missing if I just look in the inbox by date. I have many IMAP folders and searched through all and tried global search too, can't find what I am looking for.

Email account is IMAP and when I use an android device (Aquamail) viewing the same IMAP account I can see the emails I am looking for in my inbox still.

How do I get the emails back in Thunderbird? What could have happened?

On my phone because I can see the messages I want I forwarded them to myself again. On my phone I can see them in my outbox and inbox. In Thunderbird I can see them in my outbox but not my inbox.
