I had a problem as suddenly when I opened mails I could not read them. I then read the internet and decided to use the MAP REPAIR option in thunderbird. When I pushed map repair my mails went from 18000 to 435 (last 7 days or so) and all the rest is gone. My Local files inbox went to 35 GB , however mij main inbox which strangely enough is not show in thunderbird seperategly only as part of the Local folders is still there and much bigger
