Thunderbird 128.3.3 esr - using Gmail account - some email messages are blank when viewed in thunderbird
Assisting a friend - she is viewing and composing her emails from thunderbird utilising her gmail account amongst others. Occasionally clicking on the required email reveals a blank message and no attachment if there is one. This randomly happens for inbox and sent messages.
Please see images below:- 1. search result 2 & 3 selecting the required message 4. blank message as described 5. Same message directly in Gmail
Thank you in advance for any help

1. Before doing step 2, check Error Console (ctrl+shift+J) for warnings and errors when the message display has failed
2. right+click affected folder and do Properties > Repair - does the problem go away? Permanently?
Screen shots from the error console attached. The error console does not show anything when I try to display the required message but I will attempt to remove the mentioned nstmp files later.
The repair starts, downloads about 190 messages, then seems to stop on "Downloading message header 1 of 10122 In A WEEKLY INVOICES SENT". I will leave the repair running over the weekend to see if it progresses.

Screeshot with Repair running .....
Unfortunately the resolution of the uploaded screen shot is not high enough. Perhaps copy + paste the text?
Re-done screenshots with error console at a better resolution. The debugger screen is blank too.

These were taken after a successful repair was run on the folder.
