OK, I just had the same experience as one of our previous posters, but
this was with a whole mail folder. Perhaps my experience will help
someone else.
In my primary account (I have only one identity with four accounts), I
filter mail from a mailing list to a particular target folder distinct
from Inbox and not under it. Let's call this "Target" for purposes of
discussion.
I received an incoming message from the list, which was duly filtered to
Target, and the folder name was bolded with a "(1)" after it. I clicked
the folder name to read the message, and the folder instantly disappeared!
I looked in Trash, and it wasn't there.
I did CTRL-Z several times in case I had inadvertently deleted the
folder by some key press or click action, but it didn't reappear.
I looked in my profile, and found the folder \Target.sbd as a subfolder
of my account folder, but it contained only an Admin subfolder and the
corresponding .msf file. There was no "Target" or "Target.msf" file.
Eventually -- and by accident -- I discovered the missing folder as a
subfolder of the previous (adjacent) folder "Recruiting" in SM.
Apparently I had inadvertently dragged and dropped it upward by a hair
and SM had moved it "as ordered." I honestly thought I had simply
clicked the folder name, but somehow SM got it into its head that I had
dragged and dropped it. Too quick for me...
So I dragged and dropped it slowly and carefully back onto the account
name, and it reappeared in the folder list where it belonged. On
refreshing the Windows Explorer window for my account folder, I now see
the files "Target" and "Target.msf" as expected.
Apparently CTRL-Z does not undo folder moves like this.
