I open an email, press the archive button, the email disappears and cannot be found in any of the folders, including the archive folder and inbox. I tried several of the solutions, but could not find a fix.

1. Right-click folder -> Properties... -> Repair folder If that doesn't work

3. Try the instructions here: Disappearing Mail
