Hi,

I was archiving a months worth of emails and left Thunderbird to do its thing whilst I worked on other things. At some point I had a power cut and the computer turned off. I rebooted and logged in to thunderbird only to find a load of blank emails in the archive folder with only the date and time of when I had pressed archive. I can send a screen shot if it would help.

I have tried to repair the folder but nothing happens. I have checked the server and the emails have been removed. Is there any way I can restore these emails as most are work related.

Many Thanks
