Actually my account is configured for pop. I tried the repair folder
ansd it made no difference. I did find a solution. I renamed my gmail
account entry on thunderbirrd and created a new entry for my gmail
account with the same info. This ended up with thunderbird downloading
email from late 2016 to the present, and is now downloading current
email. Not a real solution, but I'll live with it.

I've been using thunderbird as my email client for a long time and
I've seldom had any issues with it, but now I'm having a strange
problem and I'm not sure where to go for help. The issue is I use
thunderbird as my email client for 3 email accounts. Thunderbird
downloads my email for 2 of those accounts, for the third, which
happens to be gmail, it tells me there are no new messages to
download. The last email thunderbird downloaded for my gmail account
is May 4. If I look at my gmail account using chrome it shows emails
up to May 15. Also I receive my gmail email on my Samsung S7
smartphone and it shows all recent email up to May 15, so I don't
think the issue is with gmail.
Does anybody know what might cause this behavior and how to fix it?
Gmail is my primary email, so I really do need to get this fixed.
Any help is appreciated.
I'm assuming your gmail account is configured for IMAP.
The first thing I would try is:
Right click on the Inbox, select properties. In the General Information
tab, click on "Repair Folder".
