Thunderbird does not download emails that I see in my webmail inbox. Deslecting "enable adaptive junk mail controls" does not do anything

Thunderbird is not downloading all my emails. My email client is Earthlink and I see all my emails in their webmail, but Thunderbird does not download all of them. Also, they do not get sent to junkmail. They just don't appear in Thunderbird

POP or IMAP?

Junk Controls don't affect what is downloaded, and they shouldn't just vaporise anything they don't like.

Pop

So Thunderbird is vaporizing a lot of emails that it does not like. Not a very good quality in an email client. What is the fix?

Thanks for your help

Oh. sorry. I misread your reply. The emails just are not appearing in Thunderbird. I see them fine in webmail. It is very strange. Any ideas?
