Yes, F9 brings the sidebar back... and incidentally, it looks like the mail pane on the left is rigged like the sidebar in Navigator...?

Definitely a key to remember if elements appear missing...

I also regularly use F5 to refresh the current pane/view.

In my experience, the mail pane 'disappears' on me if I swap between multiple views and windows... sometimes SeaMonkey 'forgets' which windows I made the sidebar component non-visible, and synchronizes all views off a randomly chosen window. I hope I worded that right.

I have not been able to force this behavior, but it never happened to me until I started using the sidebar component in Navigator (for DOMi).

I can be certain of this, as I only recently started having this occur, and also just as recently installed and started trying to use DOMi. Have been a long-time on-again, off-again SeaMonkey user for years (Mozilla Suite) and never had this occur (first time using sidebar component *ever* was last week).

As far as the contents of an individual tree missing (such as the newsgroup message tree on the left panel, while the mail tree is visible) is a totally different problem I think... unless I misunderstood.

Disregard. Solved.  Thank you

and the solution was .....??

Probably "Press F9".

This happens in our company as well.  At irregular intervals, users
call that the pane with the folders is no longer there.  When they
press F9, it returns.  There is no indication that they killed it
themselves earlier by pressing F9, it just disappears at a random
moment.
It has happened to users that I trust that they tell the truth about
this (not pressing F9 themselves).
I think it is a bug but I have never been able to reproduce it or to
find any common circumstance in which it occurs.
