Apple Mail Problem

[LookToWindward]

Hi,

I'm running Apple Mail V16.0. I had a mailbox that contained all my other Mailboxes so I could see all mail without having to select the actual mailbox, but it disappeared. I think I accidentally moved it out of the Message Viewer window and it deleted it?

Is there anyway of getting it back or recreating it?

Thanks a lot
Dave

If that mailbox was in the "on my Mac" area,
and
If you "deleted" it,
then
I'm going to GUESS that you may have deleted all the emails that were "within it".

So...
This sounds like a "time to go to my backup" situation.

In the future...
I WOULD NOT do this again.
Putting all the emails into that one folder is kinda like "keeping all your eggs in one basket"...

Is it possible the OP means the "All Inboxes" mailbox under the "Favorites" section in Mail?

Yes. that's what I meant! The account mailboxes are there and the contents are still still there, it's just that I have to look in each individual mailbox instead of just looking the "All mailboxes" box.

If you hover your cursor over "Favorites" you should see a plus sign in a circle to the right. Click on that and add "All Inboxes".
