sent email folder disappeared from two accounts

I have an Ipad Pro 12,9 with Ios 16.2

A couple hours ago I was writing an email with two image attachments on split screen (Messenger on the other half). The Mail app closed and when I re-opened it all my sent emails were gone on two pop3 accounts. I then tried to update folders, restart Ipad, modify settings but nothing worked.


Does anyone have a clue about it?


Thanks in advance,

Enrico

iPad Pro, iPadOS 16

Salutations enrico-natoli, 


Typically, when working with a POP3 account, the emails are saved locally on your device. Which may be an advantage if backups of your device are made regularly. 


If you send an email, does that Sent folder show up again, or are all sent emails now not directing to a Sent folder? Here’s how to check whether backups exist of your device - Locate backups of your iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch


The article above breaks down checking for backups on a Mac, a PC and in iCloud. 


Thanks.
