> Richard, I know you have a lot of folders (probably way more than 1000).  Do you see re-downloading or folders being inaccessible (error string: "Unable to open the summary file for <folder> on <account>. Perhaps there was an error on the disk or the full path is too long.",

Yes, in recent beta I do encounter inability sometime to time to get a list of message in folders.

This is what I get in TB 98.0b3 (64-bit), as reported recently: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1593039#c20

Same issue occasionally in TB 99.0b2 (64-bit) on Windows 10 Pro x64 with IMAP mailbox working online (Keep messages... option unticked).
If I click on other folder around the one I get the error with either parents or children I get the same error... 

I usually work around the problem by clicking on the Inbox folder... then it works again... when I click back on any folder with which I had the issue... I am wondering if it could also be due to authentication... 
Maybe something that is triggered when pressing Inbox but not a sub-sub-sub folder? For now I have really looked into the issue because I have not got too much time to do so and I can fix quickly... hoping it would be fixed at some point... while keeping up-to-date... :-) 

But if you need something specific, let me know. Next it happens, I'll try gather console errors at the least... if that can help.
