Have you tried to left-click-and-drag on the separators between these
panels to see if you, somehow, accidentally changed the geometry of the panels?
Ah. No, but I have now. Not good.
Ah, the left panel has a tittle with arrows to choose what to display there: smart folders, all, favorites, etc. None displays a thing.
I use the top-bottom split arrangement and accidentally somehow totally blanked out the bottom panel (and this also happened at one time after an upgrade to TB :-( ) but clicking and dragging on the "separation columns" between the panels brought everything back into view. (Can't explain it better than this other than to go thru the whole process of providing a video presentation of what I mean :-) .)
Yes, I understand. But it is not that, unfortunately.
Eh, unfortunately I don't understand what could happened in your case... I've been using TB since it first "came out" from the Netscape closet, and I have been using the same /.thunderbird directory contents, after a monumental disaster under Windows XP that is where I had to start from scratch :-( , for many years now and which involved changing from XP to oS, to Kubuntu, and, now, to Ubuntu, and including a change of ISP. The same results apply to my wife's system (except for the 'collapse' under XP) because I "administer" her computer; what she had for TB back in the '90's is now still running on her current Ubuntu Lucid (10.04). What you are experiencing is not normal. May I suggest, seeing that you do have a backup of your /.thunderbird directory, in particular the directories containing your mail, uninstall TB, re-install it, and put back either the full ~/.thunderbird directory or at least rebuild the new one with the backed-up mail files? But you know all this - I don't have to tell you how to suck eggs.
