<p dir="auto">I had a similar set of event a few months back and discovered 2 things that were biting me:</p>
<ul>
<li><p dir="auto">Auto-purge set on my mobile devices.</p></li>
<li><p dir="auto">Clicking on a message field created a search and dropped me into the “All Messages” box. While I was there, I decided to do some cleaning but at that time, I did not have the “Source Mailbox” column enabled so when cleaning, I ended up permanently deleting a lot of my Sent Items.</p></li>
</ul>
<p dir="auto">I have no idea if either of these relate to your issue - just sharing my experience…</p>
<p dir="auto">Good luck…</p>
