Following installation of the 32 bit version of Thunderbird 128.0b on 12 June 2024 the content of all emails in the Inbox which existed at that date - and back to 28th September 2021 - would not display at all.

Emails in the Drafts and Sent areas were unaffected.

Emails received since 12th June are displaying normally - as are e-mails dated prior to 28th September 2021.

I have re-indexed the Inbox with no improvement.

The INBOX e-mails show quite normally in Windows Mail -which I only use on my laptop.

Please keep in mind that the beta can have bugs. The opening message is"WARNING: Beta can be unstable, and there is potential to lose data."

I am well aware that it is a beta release but for the benefit of all users the fault still needs fixing if it is a bug in the system - rather than a loss of data during the update process. All the e-mail headers are stiil in the file.

Is the content kept separatly from the headers ? - if so is there a back up file created during the system update process ?

It seems strange that it only affects a range of e-mail content and not everything in the file.
