Hello, Thunderbird email user. Between October 28 and 31, 2024, I mistakenly activated the setting: delete all messages except the most recent (2000 days). All my messages that I had classified in folders are deleted, and I can't even find them in the trash. I got help from a competent person to find them on my computer's hard drive, but there is no trace left. Is there a way on your side to recover these very important messages for me. I am in IMAP Thank you in advance for your answer

Thunderbird does not have any feature that saves deleted messages.
