My old MacBook Air died and I received a new one last week. Everything transferred over via the cloud except my emails and Im not receiving new emails. How do I fix it.

Email Inbox did not transfer to new Macbook I recently upgraded to a 2020 Macbook Pro from a 2017 Macbook Air. I am running OS Monterey 12.0.1. I was running OS Big Sur on the Macbook Air. I used Migration Assistant on 30 October 2021 to transfer files and data from the old to the new laptop. It all seemed to work perfectly. I waited about 4 days to see if I could find anything that was missed in the transfer, observed nothing, then reformatted/reset the old laptop so I could donate it. Today (8 November 2021), I discovered almost all of the emails in my inbox that were dated prior to 1 November 2021 are missing. All other emails that were saved in my folders appear to have transferred. My Time Machine has not worked correctly in a while so that is not an option. I do have an iMac that has been running for 5+ years, with the same email accounts, on my home network. Is there a way to recover the "lost" emails?

Apple Mail Running Amuk I have a new 14-inch MackBook Pro; Montery, version 22.1 I hired a private apple tech to move information from an older MBP to the MBP. I didn't want to use migration because of some problems on the old MBP I use Apple Mail. After a few weeks using the new MBP emails began acting strange, including disappearing. Emails in I-map mail boxes seem to still be there. Email that was not processed and still in the inboxes disappeared Also , deleted emails come back to the Mac; The "Sent" mail box is empty no matter how many emails I send; Drafts does not work; This is a business computer and some of the losses were important. I hope that I will be able to retrieve the lost emails from either BackBlaze or RackSpace. The old computer that was used to transfer to the new also also lost the same emails. I do have Apple Care but I'm not sure what good that will be. I had to think virus but that has never happened to me. Clean my Mac says I do not have malware. I am hoping to get suggestions from the Community. Steve
