When I re-booted my system to find out why I was having problems with the screen and reloaded my Mozilla Thunderbird e mail, I only got the last three days of my e mails back...where are my last 18 months of e mails?

maybe the Thunderbird is in middle of the "folder update process" (you can see the message in the bottom bar). it takes some time to refresh the information.
