My computer does not have any known bugs - in fact I did a complete scan yesterday

I opened my computer and opened Thunderbird and all my messages in my inbox are missing from May 8 06 - present.



Reproducible: Didn't try

Steps to Reproduce:
Not sure what caused this - it seems more like some hiccup in the system (is there a limit on the file size or number of messages??) than a bug.  

Actual Results:  
Not applicable

Expected Results:

Ever since the last major update, it has been taking a long time to open Tbird - about 2-3 minutes, but have not had any other problems.

Is this my computer, Tbird, sunspots.  Who knows.  

Fortunately I backed everything up less than a week ago but how do I merge my messages from the backup with my current ones - as I use it a lot for business.  Any way to do this?

Tis Sam again - Is there a magician in the house

All my inbox messages have magically re-appeared.

Very strange
