I had a similar set of event a few months back and discovered 2 things
that were biting me:
* Auto-purge set on my mobile devices.
* Clicking on a message field created a search and dropped me into the
“All Messages” box. While I was there, I decided to do some
cleaning but at that time, I did not have the “Source Mailbox”
column enabled so when cleaning, I ended up permanently deleting a lot
of my Sent Items.
I have no idea if either of these relate to your issue - just sharing my
experience…
Good luck…

Whew! :)
I am still curious where I can find logs to maybe track down what
happened...

I was pretty shocked to go looking through my Sent mail folder to
find only 6 messages. I usually have thousands in there, dating back
years.
My only guess as to what happened is that I restored my computer from
a backup, and maybe it didn’t have emails cached, and Mailmate did
a sync and initiated a mass delete? That sounds farfetched, but the
timing is just too coincidental.
Anyway, I could use some help figuring out what happened. Does
MailMate have logs that would show the commands it’s sent, that may
have led to deletion?
And most importantly, any suggestions on how I can recover these
emails? I have sent a request to my mail provider (FastMail) and am
waiting to hear back.

p.s. I’m not blaming MailMate... just trying to figure out what
happened, and how to recover the email, and this is one avenue to
explore.
