I opened my email on Thunderbird and all emails, folders etc are gone for all three email address. The email addresses are in the drop down box and when I drop them down their is a small envelope with a tiny lock on the lower right corner of the envelope. How do I restore all emails, folders etc for these three email addresses?

Here is a screenshot of my Thunderbird email program. In the upper left corner at Get Messages I can drop down all three of my email addresses but as you can see their is nothing there anymore. How can I restore my Thunderbird?
