I was using Thunderbird when suddenly the content of the emails in the inbox disappeared. There was some error about not finding the content in the profile location. This also disappeared, I was let with a list of the emails in the inbox - but there was not body content - just the from, subject, time etc. I tried to use the right click Properties>Repair button - but the metadata just disappered as well. Looking in the indox file in the profile folders - all the old emails are gone - but I can recieve new ones. Older emails appear as separate files in the Inbox.mozmsgs folder. Is there anyway to get my old emails back? Some will still be on the server - but not all.
