Found out what the issue was. In view on Toolbar under Folders it had jumped to All from Unified. Bloody annoying when it does that as, one minute everything is fine and the next the majority of your folders are missing.  :)

Even with a clean install of Thunderbird, I have only an Inbox. There are no other folders. My View settings, user the Tools as described above are set to all.

No Sent folder for when I send an email so Thunderbird just sits with a progress bar showing sending.

More than bloody annoying. This makes Thunderbird unusable.
