All of a sudden subfolders of my inbox for one of my accounts have disappeared, even though I can still see them (and their contents) when I access that account through outlook and the provider's webmail. I want to see them (and their contenets) in the thunderbird left hand panel once again.

right click the account in the left pane and select subscribe. Are the folders subscribed?
