My inbox has about 8 years of emails. The inbox files itself does still exist and it's 50 GB so i know my files are all in there but after "repairing folder" and also manually deleting inbox, it only rebuilds each time with about 700 random date emails instead of the 10,000 i had before.

I tried the import/export workaround but it won't import a file more than 4 GB.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks

Sounds like the folder is corrupted. Also 50gb is huge, for any type of folder.

Pop account or imap?

You have backups?
