I am using the Apple email client. When I check for new email, the progress bar says that I have 39 new messages and completes the download..... thing is, none of them are visible in my mailbox. This is a new problem... never have experienced this before. I am running Mnt. Lion OSX 10.8. Any ideas????

Any email rules established on this or any other computer that might be reading the same email account or on the mail server that might be moving messages to a different mailbox?
Hi Mark,
No, but my email is generated by a Network Solutions account. It is not hosted by Apple. My mail app acts like it is retrieving my email just fine, but it is not visible. Also, this only started today. I have been running Mnt. Lion since its release and my mail was downloading and viewing just fine... but for some reason today, I am unable to see the messages in my inbox.
If the Activity window shows messages being downloaded, they should be going somewhere, even if only briefly before being deleted.
I have no explanation for why it would just have started if you (and Network Solutions) haven't changed any rules or filters.
Have you tried having somebody send you a test message of known content that you can search for, just to rule out the possibility that mail is being shunted into some mailbox other than your inbox?
Guess what? My mail is working correctly today. Must have been some server issue on NSL or Apple - who knows. .... go figure. Thank you for your suggestions!
