If, for example, the status of your mailbox at the the mybox panel<\/strong> level or the e-mail application does not list all the messages that should be in the selected e-mail box, you have the option of ordering the reconstruction of the indexes yourself to fix this status.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

1.<\/strong> In the first step, log in to the mybox panel<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n<\/div>\n\n

\n\n\n

4. <\/strong>A confirmation window will pop up to confirm the operation. You need to keep in mind that during the rebuilding of indexes, the email inbox may not respond correctly, so it is best to perform this action after working hours.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The duration of the index reconstruction will depend on the size of your mailbox and the number of messages that are in it and can range from several minutes to even several hours.<\/em><\/div><\/div>
