Messages not displaying in mail

Mail (v16.0) keeps downloading my mail, but for one particular account (AOL) the message itself is blank. It displays "This message has no content". I download all mail again, quit & restart the app, but I can't seem to get my mail to display. Anyone else seen this with their mail app?

I seem to have resolved this problem by going to Mailbox > Rebuild.


I am on a new computer, and am not sure if it had to do with the transfer of data from the old MacBook Pro. But Rebuild meant it re-created folders & downloaded all old mail. Since it is over 20k messages, I guess I got some "cleaning up" to do. :-)
