I have several email accounts. When I get new msgs I can open them up separately and read them, but if I leave some there and switch to another account, the first account inbox is empty when I go back. The "missing" msgs ARE in "All inboxes", but I want to able to keep my inboxes separate as before! Any ideas?

Hello lhfrank,
Thanks for reaching out in Apple Support Communities. We understand that you're having trouble with your emails. It looks like the emails disappear and they appear in "All Inboxes." We're happy to help. For this particular issue, we'd like to see if the issue is replicated in safe mode. Safe mode prevents your Mac from loading certain software as it starts up, including login items, system extensions not required by macOS. If your Mac fully updated with the latest version of macOS Big Sur? Staying up to date helps ensure your device can function the best. In case you need to update your Mac, back up your Mac to secure your data.

Cheers!
Problem solved. Big Sur added a filter to a certain account so it displayed only unread msgs. Look under Mail>View>Filter to disable.
