Thanks very much for your instruction.
Indeed repairing leaded to the disappearance of the mails. I made the
backup before but the file ist too big to be opened. But it seems that
the mails are not so important to take too much effort to restore them.

Around 100 mails within a time span of 20 days are indicated in the
inbox list properly but the content is lost. I wonder what has
happened and how I can restore them.
Before doing anything more, close SeaMonkey and back up your profile.
It's possible that the mailbox file might be corrupted, and some
attempts to "repair" it might delete the content you're after.
It may be that the content is gone from the mailbox folder anyway, but
for some reason the index still includes the header data to show in
the list. You could try right-clicking the folder, select
"Properties" and click the "Repair Folder" button. You might find
those emails are then gone though - hence backing it up first -
although that would probably indicate that the content isn't actually
there anyway.
Depending on the server type, SeaMonkey can be set to only download
the headers, and leave the content on the server. Make sure you're
not working "offline" - File > Offline, there should be no tick next
to "Work Offline" - if that's set, it won't attempt to download the
content to view even if your network is connected. You may then want
to check the settings for each account under Edit > Mail & Newsgroups
Account Settings - particularly the "Server Settings" and "Disc Space"
/ "Synchronisation & Storage" sections for each account.
Failing that, it may be a case of manually inspecting the mailbox file
to see whether there's any data there which can be recovered. I once
(about 15 years ago) had a mailbox file somehow corrupted in such a
way that the boundaries between messages weren't correctly recognised,
leading to the headers of some emails appearing appended to the text
of others, and the content of other emails not showing anywhere even
though it was in the file. In some cases, deleting one email would
also delete part of the next email in the file.
