I use SeaMonkey for reading newsgroups and not email. Prior to this I
used T-bird for years. In all that time I never lost a single post.
Now in SeaMonkey I have lost several years worth of posts in one of the
groups. I was starting and stopping SeaMonkey to try the font changes.
When I was done with that and went to a group to read messages I see
nothing between 2012 and 4 AM this morning. So far this is only in one
group.
What could have happened? Is there a way to get those posts back? I
have all the group data from when I switched to SeaMonkey a few weeks ago.
Rickman, with the faulty news group selected, in the top menu select
View->Threads->All.
Can you now "see" all the messages listed?? Some will be in Bold print,
indicating they are unread, whilst some will be in faint print, indicating
they have been read.
The more recent threads were not there. I found by right clicking the group
a menu showed "properties". That brings up a dialog box with a button for
"Repair Folder". When I selected that it started downloading the full
folder again.
It's fine now. I wonder what happened in the first place?
