Version: 115.3.1 (64-bit) I've sent an email then clicked on the "Get messages" button. The program froze for a couple of seconds then all of my emails were gone. I even checked my email service provider's site but no luck. However the data usage says my email account still has 1.3GB of data. I have checked every directory of my email account. What now?

Also, this is my local data folder. I have checked the "INBOX" file and it contains all of my disappeared emails.
