On my mail page, I saw a vertical gray bar and moved it to the right. For days now, I can see left column with inbox, drafts, folders, etc. But where my e-mail used to be, it is blank. Also, just before this all the little boxes where I could check my e-mails, disappeared. When I use Explorer I can get to my mail, but I don't like Explorer. I want Firefox back.

Opening in the sidebar is the default for bookmarks that are created via a link or button on a website.
You can check the Properties of a bookmark via the right-click context menu in the sidebar (Ctrl+B; Cmd+B on Mac).
In the Bookmarks Manager (Bookmarks > Show All Bookmarks) you can click the More button in the Details pane at the bottom right.
Make sure that "Load this bookmark in the sidebar" is not selected.

I can click on and see All bookmarks, but do not see a More button or Details pane at bottom right. I didn't think bookmarks is the problem, but my e-mail list. I click on inbox, sent, etc and get nothing .
