Trying to understand archiving

I'm trying to understand archiving, I've done a lot of searching and found nothing that answers my questions. I'm running Thunderbird 115.4.1 on Linux Mint 20.3. I have Keep message archives in "Archives" folder on Local Folders set, and Archive Options set to Keep existing folder structure of archived messages. I've (apparently) archived a few old messages, I say apparently because they disappeared from the folder they were in so I'm really hoping they still extant somewhere. And this is a Gmail account using imap.

Question 1: How do I determine where the archives are stored. They are not in ~/.thunderbird

Question 2: how do do I access them if I want to search for a read an old email?

Thank you in advance.

Seen both of those. Neither answers my questions.
