How do I locate a specific folder that's disappeared after trying to rename it?
I've lost an email folder, together with its sub folders after trying to rename it in Thunderbird, on my Mac.
By searching for an email using the subject line and using filters, I can see that a sub-folder still exists, together with its 24 emails, but I can't actually find this sub-folder, or the parent folder anywhere.
Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

If mail disappeared from the message list immediately after you renamed a mail folder or subfolder, try exiting Thunderbird and restarting.
If that doesn't work: Close Thunderbird - this is important go to your profile folder Profile folder;
scroll down, locate and delete the panacea.dat file.
If POP click on 'Mail' folder If IMAP click on 'ImapMail' folder
click on account name rename the corresponding mail file .
eg: If you have a folder called 'Bills' and it contains subfolders
- Bills - no extension - this is an mbox file and has emails
- Bills.msf - this is the 'Bills' indexing file - no emails
- Bills.sbd - this is a Folder used to hold only 'Bills' subfolders - more mbox and index files.
All three must have same name. This name is shown as a folder in your Folder Pane'
