I need help finding my flagged emails.
My flagged emails have disappeared. I checked my trash folder they're not there.
Is there a fix for this?

Hi bugg1212,
Welcome to Apple Support Communities. Are you missing flagged emails in the sidebar of the Mail app on your Mac? Just to be sure and see if this helps to locate the flagged emails, please follow these steps:
Show flagged emails
1. In the Mail app on your Mac, click the arrow next to Flagged in the Mail sidebar or the Favorites bar, then choose a flag.
Only messages marked with that flag are shown in the message list.
2. To show all messages in the Inbox again, click Inbox in the Mail sidebar or the Favorites bar.
You can search for flagged messages. Type a flag name in the search field, then select the suggestion in the Flags category. Or type “flag,” then choose the suggestion in the Status category.
Also, let's ensure that iCloud Drive is turned on for the Mail app. To do that, go to the menu bar and select the Apple icon > System Preferences > click Apple ID > select iCloud in the left sidebar > enable iCloud Drive > select Options > have a checkmark next to "Mail."
Following these steps may help.
Please keep us posted with the results.
Kind regards.
