I was using the "Delete Junk Email in Folder" in the Tool menu, just tagging a few emails as junk then deleting them, when suddenly my entire inbox and most of my "old messages" archive disappeared and reappeared in my Trash folder. Also in there are thousands of spam emails. Everything that moved seemed to have been tagged as "junk", so it's impossible to sort using that. I would like to somehow find out how to filter for emails that were moved within the past few hours, then be able to move them back.

Is this a yahoo or sky account? They have had trouble for several days now. You will want to contact them.
