Emails lost after repairing corrupt inbox
I’ve been using Thunderbird for quite a few years now but recently out of the blue I noticed that all emails starting from 2000 to a few weeks ago show up blank when opened. After googling this issue I found someone who suggested I repair the inbox in Thunderbird (right click and repair), which I did. However now all those mails that first showed up blank are completely missing from my inbox. I know they’re still there because when I search for them Thunderbird can find them and even shows the first few sentences of the email. But when I attempt to open them they’re empty again.
It seems to be an indexing issue, which I’ve tried to resolve by removing the indexing file (to a different location just in case). Then starting up Thunderbird again to rebuild the file, sadly this did not resolve the issue.
Normally I would just re-sync these emails from online, however due to an issue with my mail provider these are no longer available there.
I know the emails are still there stored locally, but I can’t access them anymore.
Can anyone help?
My mail account uses POP

I’ve also tried to save a copy of the entire mailbox folder and then re-import that into Thunderbird with a plug-in, but mails still aren’t visible.
