Hello - can anyone explain why my emails are automatically getting removed from my Inbox, and being put into my Deleted box please? It seems to happen overnight. This has not just started happening, it's been an on-going issue. I have the latest Thunderbird installed. Does anyone have a solution please? Thanks in advance.

Retention policy?

Right-click your inbox, open "properties" and check if it's set to expire your emails.
