I Archived my emails instead of saving. They are supposed to be in a folder named 2021 for the year. I see the folder and the default setting is to place messages in this folder but not delete. I don't see any messages and I don's see any way to get them back. How do I do this?

who is your actual mail provider? For Google based mail Thunderbird archive settings are ignored and mail goes to all mail folder.
