Missing mails and folder settings after Ubuntu update

Hi, I updated Ubuntu and after update almost all my emails and my catalogues settings are gone. I only see a few mails received over the past 2 weeks before an update, and a few from a few weeks after I bought my PC and set up Thunderbird.

During the update I was asked: "Do you want to reset your setting to default?" and some second question and I responded "Yes" twice.

Everything apart from mails from Thunderbird stayed with no changes. Do you have any idea how to try to get my mails back? I'm happy to share all data you need to answer my question. Thank you in advance!
