New emails received but do not appear in my inbox

Hiya - since Monday, my email inbox only shows some the emails actually in there. In order to see any newly received ones, I have to use the 'Search the inbox' facility, filtering from the date I last checked them, to today's date.  I can then see them (and they are labeled 'Inbox'), but when I return to the inbox, none of them are there.

When I hover my mouse arrow over the Inbox folder, it tells me I currently have "Total: 61 emails; Unread 42" but I can only see 30 in the inbox and nothing beyond 23rd July. I am on BT Premium Mail and when I was checking my emails on Monday it did freeze and crash. Any help would be gratefully received!

Re: New emails received but do not appear in my inbox

Hiya - I spent nearly half an hour on the phone with someone from the BT Premium helpline on Monday, but unfortunately despite them checking all of my settings and running a test, they were at a loss as to what the problem is. I only access my email via the BT email login page on a web browser (have tried both Google Chrome and Edge) and I am not using an email app, so POP3 instead of IMAP doesn't seem to be the issue. Tried downloading the BT Email app this morning to see if that made any difference, but still the same. Any thoughts or suggestions would be gratefully received!

Re: New emails received but do not appear in my inbox

Although you have tried using the BTMail app I would suggest that you don't until things on webmail have been resolved. Using the BTMail app while there is a problem could just muddy the waters. 

Have you tried clearing the history and cookies on your browser?

Have you tried a different browser?

If that does not work, which I suspect it won't, your problem will need to be escalated as it would appear that your email account has become corrupted in some way.
