Steps to reproduce:

version 45.8.0 Create an imap account on a server and download all mail, storing all messages locally, Select to have all the messages saved locally. Then that server crashes or is taken off line. When I launch Thunderbird all the messages in the inbox and sent are gone I verified that the profile still has the msf files but not the data file. Also the the sub-folders that I created are in the profile but are not being displayed.


Actual results:

The inbox, sent drafts are empty 


Expected results:

all  inbox, sent drafts should have retained all the messages and display the sub-folders created.
