Sent emails are missing from Thunderbird following migration from alternative email client and import of emails

All sent emails are missing from the Thunderbird 'Sent' folder following import, but Sent folder still shows a count of the imported emails (Thunderbird considered them to be unread when importing them, hence the count). The messages are also visible online (BT Internet email) and on other devices (Android running BlueMail). Settings are set to place copies of sent items into Sent folder. Having imported all my old email, I can send email but again they do not appear in the Sent folder (but do appear online and on other devices). I have tried compacting the Sent folder and i have tried repairing the folder. All other folders (Inbox, other newly created folders) show the email i have imported.
If I move an email online from the Sent folder to another test folder, it syncs and appears in Thunderbird in that test folder. If I then use Thunderbird to move the email back from that test folder to the Sent folder then Thunderbird will do so, but locks up for a good minute or so while doing that.
Running TB 24.6.0 on Windows 8.1, incoming server set to IMAP on mail.btinternet.com (port 993), outgoing server set to SMTP on mail.btinternet.com (port 465).
Help gratefully received!

Cheers for that, Mulder.
It did seem to recover some emails which had disappeared from Mail, but not all of them. That's the frustrating thing - short of going through my Yahoo webmail accounts and logging every single email, and then cross-referencing with what's on my desktop, I just can't be sure what's there and what's not!
Sometimes it's immediately clear that something is awry - the folder I use for emails from my girlfriend is completely empty, for instance, when I definitely had things in there before the weekend. (Yes, again I went away for the weekend, with the computer still running - and Mail on - and again I returned to discover emails missing.
Arrgh!

    All emails are missing from my main, unruled mailboxes. Followed directions in help to no avail. Can anyone explain what happened and how to fix it? Thanks.

    You may have more then one catalog. And you opened the old one by accidente. To switch back to your cuurent one close lightroom and click again the Lr icon to open it before lr lunch click Ctrl+Alt it will open a dialog box from there you can choose which catalog you want to work with.
    NB : you can not open two catalogs in same time.

  • Old "sent emails" are MISSING

    I've been using me.com since 2008, back then it was a paid service. When the time came, I switched to iCloud, no problem, I enjoy the service. Recently I need to find some sent emails during the period of mid-2011 then I realized that my "Sent" folder only records sent emails from May 2012 (which I think around the time I switched to iCloud, perhaps June 2012). Older emails are MISSING. I'm using Mail in my iMac but when I tried to login to www.me.com or www.icloud.com, and accessed my "Sent" folder, it's the same. Strangely enough, my emails in "Inbox" (both in my iMac & at the server) are intact, only those in "Sent" folder are missing.
    Anyone has any idea what's going on? Is there a chance I could get my old emails (pre-May, 2012)? Thanks.

    I've been using Mail (currently 4.6 (1085)) to handle all my emails including my Gmail account. Yes, I did migrate, I remember changing some settings through the web but I don't recall changing things in my Mail setting. Perhaps, I did, I'm not sure. I attach a screen capture of my Mail settings:
    Yes, it's foolish to have no backup. I've been using TimeMachine with TimeCapsule for quite some time now. I think I switched from MM to iCloud around June 2012, when it was close to deadline. Does my attached picture answer your question about the server setting?

  • 'Some images are missing because they were deleted from the document'

    Hi,
    I created a document in Pages v5.2 last week and have just opened it and received the following message:
    'Some images are missing because they were deleted from the document'
    When I try and replace the missing images I get the following message:
    'The image "filename" couldn't be inserted.'
    When I try and reimport the original image I get the following message:
    'The image "filename" couldn't be inserted. This image is of an unsupported type.'
    If I try and insert an image that was not in the document before, in the same file format, it goes in fine.
    If I insert the original image into a blank Pages document it goes in no problem.
    I would also like to point out that the data folder still contains lots of versions of images in the document, but does not seem to have any of the ones I am actually using, which I guess is where the problem is. However I have no idea how or why these specific images have been deleted.
    Any light on how this problem has come about, and the best possible way to fix it would be greatly appreciated.
    Alex

    I have Pages v5.2.2 on OS X 10.9.4. I can not reproduce your stated issues with images in this version of Pages. I don't have a solution for you. See my test in the third paragraph. If I were experiencing this behavior, I would perform a Safe Boot to clear out System caches, and try again, before kicking Pages v5+ to the curb.
    The Safe Boot would be pressing and holding the shift key at boot chime, and until a horizontal progress bar shows on the screen. At the eventual login screen, after you type your password — press and hold the shift key — press the right arrow to login, and release the shift key after the Finder menu bar appears. Then reboot normally.
    I have created a new document. Dragged and dropped an image into it and saved. Exited Pages. Reopening worked fine. Deleted the image, and proceeded through the following steps, punctuated by save, exit, reopen, and deliberate image removal. Different .jpg image each time. About mid-way through the following item list, I rebooted the MBA just to throw some "spin" into the process. I did not perform a Safe Boot prior to this series of tests.

    Insert > Choose jpg into document

  • Upon opening Mail this morning to check when I'd sent a draft I wrote yesterday, I noticed all my sent messages are missing.

    Upon opening Mail this morning to check when I'd sent a draft I wrote yesterday, I noticed all my sent messages are missing. I had mail dating back ten years in there. When I go to Time Machine to restore, only today's Sent Mailbox is available. Time Machine has been backing up seamlessly for months, so there should not be a problem finding a backup. What's going on and how do I restore the Sent Mailbox?
    I am using 10.7.4 on a MacBook Pro
    Laura

    Unless your TM drive is messed up, the backups should be there. So relax a bit.
    The mail is stored in your Home Library folder, not the hard drive Library folder. The Home Library folder is hidden in Lion. To get to it, select Go in the Finder and hold the option key down. Select Library in the submenu. A Finder window will open up in your Home Library.
    From there, you will navigate to the Mail folder, then V2 folder. All main mailboxes for each account will be in their account folder. There is another folder called Mailboxes which will store all local folders.
    If you select the V2 folder in the Finder window, then enter TM, you should be able to go back into time.
    Before doing anything else, first open Disk Utility and verify that your hard drive is OK.
    If it is, go into the hard drive and navigate to the Home Library/Mail/V2 folder. Open each mail account and click on the mailbox your messages were in, like the inbox. See if the messages folder contains messages.
    I just want you to see if the mailboxes are in the account folders and that they contain data. If so, we will continue from there. There's no use in trying to restore if there are problems just yet. Let's verify this first, then we will proceed.

  • Data Records are missing in between while loading from R/3 (ECC) to BI.

    Dear Experts,
    I have created a custom DataSource on Custom Function Module.  This datasource contains 600 fields. (I know its a monster and splitting options are thinner).
    1) Validate the data using RSA3 in R/3 and showed the correct record count.
    2) Validate the data by debugging the FM, still showed the correct record count.
    But while loading from R/3 to BI, records are missing.
    Various Scenarios load from R/3 to BI:
    1a) Loaded full load (78000 records) with all default data transfer settings.  PSA showed up with 72000 records (missing 6000) only.  Compared the Idocs vs data packets, both reconciled.
    1b) Loaded full load (78000) with modified settings (15000 KB / data packet).  PSA showed up with 74000 records (missing 4000) only.
    2a) Loaded with selection parameters (took a small chunk) (7000 records) with default data transfer settings.  PSA showed up only 5000 records (missing 2000).
    2b) Loaded with selection parameters (7000 records) with modified settings (15000 KB / data packet).  PSA showed up all 7000 records.
    3a) Loaded with selection parameters (took further small chunk) (4000 records).  PSA showed up all records regardless data transfer settings.
    Also please look at this piece of code from the function module,
    IF l_wa_interface-isource = 'ZBI_ARD_TRANS'.
          l_package_size = l_wa_interface-maxsize DIV 60.
        ENDIF.
    I really appreciate your advise or help in this regard.
    Thanks much,
    Anil

  • Want to delete mails from Thunderbird but not from the server?

    Hi,
    Please tell me how to configure the settings of Thunderbird so that if i delete any mail from Thunderbird that mail would be delete only from Thunderbird not from server. I'm using IMAP configuration for all my mail accounts and I'm using Thunderbird in my laptop and tablet both.
    Currently i'm using Thunderbird 24.4.0 and i just want to delete my useless mails from Thunderbird but not from the server without using pop-3 settings.
    Actually the reason for this Question arises because whenever i use to uninstall and reinstatement Thunderbird, i use to take "profiles" as a back up and its size is increasing day by day that is making a big issue to me as i cant take a back up of such a big size file.

    Imap mail accounts keep the emails on the server and you see a remote view of those emails and folders.
    When you subscribe to see a folder, the headers are downloaded, when you select an email to read, the entire folder is downloaded to a temp cache facilitating quicker access. If you synchronize folders, then a copy of that folder is downloaded to an mbox file in your profile, so that you have a copy of the server folder. When you make any changes to a synchronized folder, read an email, delete or move etc, then Thunderbird will resynchronize with the server to update the server. A synchronized folder allows you to work in 'offline' mode and this is the best time to perform a backup as you know there is a temporary stop on synchronizing as you are offline. They will resynchronize when you go back into 'online' mode.
    So, with IMAP mail accounts, the folders you see in Thunderbird are the same folders on the webmail server. If you make any changes via Thunderbird or webmail then you are changing the same folder. You cannot delete an email without deleting it from the server, they are one and the same.
    What you can do is move/copy an email into Local Folders and delete the one on the server. The Local Folders emails are kept in your Profile on your computer, these folders/emails are not on the server, unless you chose to keep a copy of them on the server.
    Pop mail accounts cannot see the folders on the server. They only access the server Inbox folder and download emails not previously downloaded to the mail account Inbox in Thunderbird. These emails are kept on your computer in your profile folder. You can select to keep a copy on the server or not. You can choose to delete emails off your computer and off the server or not.
    If the mail account is gmail , have you subscribed or even synchronized to see the 'All Mail' folder ? Gmail's all Mail folder is their Archive folder, it keeps a copy of all of your non-deleted emails. So, you do not need to subscribe to see this folder as it only shows you what you can already see in other folders. It doubles the disc space.
    Please read section on 'All Mail' at this link.
    * http://kb.mozillazine.org/Using_Gmail_with_Thunderbird_and_Mozilla_Suite
    You do not have to download/synchronize the entire folder. You could select to only synchronize the most recent xx days of emails.

  • How row migration get eliminated by export and import the table.

    Hi ,
    Please let me know,how row migration get eliminated by export and import the table.
    Another method,deleting migrated rows and inserting those rows from copied table,
    i think the concept behind this method is,inserting these rows into new block.
    pls correct me if i am wrong.
    Thanks,
    Kumar.

    Hi!
    You can also use ALTER TABLE MOVE command, or if you are on 9i you can use DBMS_REDEFINITION package.
    If you have a maintainance window the easiest way would be to use alter table move.

  • I have a new ipad 2.  The mail program  refuses to send forwarded emails because the recipient "doesn't accept relays."  My desktop and Blackberry forward emails to those recipients  without difficulty.  Help.

    I have a new ipad 2.  The mail program  refuses to send forwarded emails because the recipient "doesn't accept relays."  My desktop and Blackberry forward emails to those recipients  without difficulty.  Help.

    I suspect that you are using the Forwarding option within Workgroup Manager, and this works outside of the postfix alias scheme. I think you should just set those users you are forwarding to, to normal mail users, and put their forwarding rules ALSO in the alias file, so you would have:
    MAILER-DAEMON: postmaster
    postmaster: alex,yong
    alex: [email protected]
    That should do it. You really have to commit to either using Workgroup Manager or Postfix in their entirety. They don't really work too nicely in conjunction with each other.

    Assuming that you can send email on the iPad, Maybe something is corrupt in Safari that is causing this. Try clearing Safari and see if the sites will accept your email address.
    Go to Settings>Safari>Clear History, Cookies and Data. Restart the iPad. Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.

  • TS3276 Sent emails are missing....

    All emails have been deleted from my "sent" items folder. I use Outlook on an Apple MacBook Pro and have not changed the settings/preferences or anything else recently and have not deleted any mail items in the past 2 months....help!

    You're welcome
    I forgot to mention to to that in Mail's preferences, but I guess you figured that out.

  • Mailbox folders are missing, like priority, follow up, etc.  How do I get them back?

    All of my personal mailbox folders are missing like follow up, priorities, reservations, online receipts, etc.  How do I get them back?  I did soft reset but it did not resolve the problem.  I recently updated the software but that was about a week ago.   This just happened a day ago.  Any help would be so appreciated.
    THanks!
    Lori

    I think that Dominic is giving a suggestion for the mail application on a Mac computer, not an iPad.
    If you had additional mailboxes on the iPad, that means that your email account is IMAP and the mailboxes should sync across devices. Are the mailboxes/folders still in existence when you log into your email account in a web browser? If they era still there, then they should sync to the iPad and yo all of your other devices.
    Try closing mail completely and reset your iPad. Then see if they reappear.
    In order to close apps, you have to drag the app up from the multitasking display. Double tap the home button and you will see apps lined up going left to right across the screen. Swipe to get to the app that you want to close and then swipe "up" on the app preview thumbnail to close it.
    Next, reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.

  • Switched to iCloud and now my trash emails are missing

    I am missing months of emails in my trash bin. I double checked the Mailbox behavior settings and everything is checked appropriately - to indicate NEVER to delete. I am only available to see the last week's emails that have been put in the trash.
    How do I recover them?

    Though nothing was said about the Trash I'm not entirely surprised that migrating from MobileMe to iCloud cleared the Trash. Why on earth did you keep messages in the Trash if you wanted to hang on to them? There will certainly be no way to retrieve them.
