Opera doesn't automatically initiate the export after you tell it to fetch all the bodies. You have to try the export again.

Thanks for the answer. I try, but it always asks the same thing again.

Also when I right click on a mail in a list of subjects, the "Fetch Complete Message" is gray.

Thanks for answers.

This is an IMAP account, so Opera should be getting information from the server. If you click on a message to read it, does it show the correct data in the message fields?

After opera restart, the window looks normal - it shows correctly body of the mail where the cursor is in the list of subjects. If I click on some other mail in the list of mails/subjects, this subjects becomes selected (blue color) but subject text becomes invisible and the message body becomes "No message selected".

Right click on a message and choose "view all headers and message". Are the headers there at least? If so, I think Opera's database is just messed up. (The database duplicates some info from the stored mbs file and uses that copy of the info.)

It works on the mail where the cursor was immediately after opera restart. Also if I click on mail B and return on mail A then it will not work again on mail A.

You can run a database check to see if it fixes it.

Recovery log says database consistent. (BTW the link you mentioned doesn't work for me, I used this one.)

If that doesn't work, try deleting .opera/sessions/autosave.win. If that doesn't work, try renaming .opera/operaprefs.ini. If that doesn't work, you can try reinstalling Opera over the top of itself to repair program files.

Tried it but it doesn't work.

If none of that works, you'll probably have to start over with a new mail folder. To do that, you'd right-click "All Messages/Sent" and export it to an mbs file.

It asks to download missing bodies before exporting. I click Yes but nothing happens.

Opera mail worked for years but now placeholders for Subjects and From are empty. I.e. when I start opera it:

• loads mails from its database,
• mail counts seem ok,
• list of boxes placeholders for Subject and From looks normal at first,
• but after any scroll up/down or click all these placeholders become empty (blank).
  It seems like all mail entries are there except there is no text - just empty placeholders.

Is there something I could try except deleting .opera/mail ?

The reason why I am reluctant to delete .opera/mail is that I would like to save mails from sent folder which are not saved on the imap server. (Such mails unfortunately exist because of some other bug.)

Also, is there a way to backup label definitions ?
