What accounts for this? - Ambo

I had 5 retained emails, all shown as read. On switching on this afternoon a further three had been sent but so had all I had received and deleted back to Supt. 19th, shown as unread, then back further to April 4th., shown as read. What could account for this?

I read the three new ones, deleted the lot and switched off. Switching on again I found no new messages but sent one to myself. It duly appeared but there was nothing further.

Don't suppose you've recently loaded a Restore point?

Do you know whether you are using POP or IMAP email? Or an online mail?

Sounds like IMAP, maybe getting it's syncing in a twist.

You might just check that your system date is correct, but that is usually a cause for mails not being sent, when it is wrongly set in the future.

Not Restored, use POP. No further trouble today. It looks as if the Deleted file somehow copied itself across but I have now deleted all the Deleted items.
