All Inboxes folder in Mail has disappeared!

I am using Big Sur 11.2.1. The mail folder for All Inboxes has disappeared, and I can not find a way to restore it. Any suggestions?

What is best way to restore Inbox in Apple Mail? Three or four days ago my Inbox disappeared. I navigate mailboxes in Mail using the sidebar. I have tried quitting and reopening mail and rebuilding Mail - so far no change. I have many folders and subfolders in Mail that I use to organize those emails I keep. I tried restoring Mail database from Time Machine. That didn't change anything except a lot needed to be downloaded again. I'm not sure what I did to make it go away. Perhaps some dragged into another folder - but I can't find the inbox in any other folder. Also I still have the various inboxes for the email servers I use (gmail, iCloud, etc.) I don't think I am missing any mail. I am running MacOs 13.1 Ventura. Should I just create a new folder called inbox? Thanks for any suggestions

why have mailboxes dissappeared? This morning I found that all my mailboxes, other than those associated with a specific email had disappeared. I think all the emails I filed in those boxes are still there but I can’t see the mailboxes. For me this is a disaster since I file emails from different email addresses in these mailboxes. I haven’t changed any settings. Am running Big Sur. Where did my mailboxes go and how do I get them back?

Inbox vanishes from Mail MacOS Ventura My Inbox vanished. I can't "rebuild" because the mailbox is gone. I can rebuild individual mailboxes, but that doesn't restore Inbox. I tried restarting Mail, no luck. Restart Mac, no luck. I have no idea why Inbox disappeared, I was in the process of reviewing junk mail prior to deleting it and the Inbox (a default smart folder containing what appear to be smart folders for the mail accounts) just vanished. How do I restore it?
