Discovered the same thing by accident.
“Clear All” makes absolutely no sense in this context, does it??? :( Should say “See New messages”!
Hi,
There are many reasons that this could happen, and I am disappointed that representatives of MS (in any capacity) can't answer questions like this with relative ease, but I found a solution for my particular issue and I will share it here in case it might help some of you.
Quick Caveat: I did not have time to read all of the messages here, so I apologize if this is redundant.
First a quick description of my issue.
In a new POP account that I just setup (none of my other accounts ever had this problem) I could see that in the left column within my Folder Hierarchy my Inbox had 20 messages in it, however none of them appeared in my center message display panel. It looked like my Inbox was empty.
Now mind you this was a new account that I just setup, so I hadn't made any changes to it.
After as much research as I could handle I just started experimenting, and for my issue the fix was quite simple.
In the blank message area, I Right Clicked, which pulled up a menu. I clicked on "Filter" which pulled up a dialog box. At the bottom of the dialog box I clicked on "Clear All" and with that my messages appeared, and all was good.
I know that this might be the solution for your exact issue, but maybe this will help some of you.
Not showing all the email in my inbox
Connor Markart, If you devices are synced so that they all show the same info, that's what happens. Unsync them.
Connor Markart, Go to the word "Filter" on the right side of your email screen. Click it. On the drop-down menu, see the word "Sort". Click that. See a drop-down menu that includes "Date". Check that option, and you will see your inbox formatted correctly with your incoming emails.
