I don't think so. I'd rather think they have been "somehow" deleted.
Does your Windows "Find File" find anything? Did you check the
"Recycled" directory?

Doesn't make sense to me. If the directory doesn't exist on the HD,
how can TB find the messages?
I did, however, noticed that I suddenly have files called
"foldername." (for example: tbudl. - no file extension) in my My
Documents directory. They contain all messages, with headers, that
were in a folder on 6 December, for some reason. They are in plain
text. I don't know how they ended up there, but maybe you want to take
a look for a file "Pilot." on your PC (if that was the name of the
folder).

No idea. Never happened to me.

Good question. Try to send yourself a message that would quilify for
that filter, and then "search" for it.
I would also recommend to either disable this filter or create a
folder Pilot (or Pilot2) now, in order for you to not lose any more
messages. ;-)
