unable to open account folders in apple mail

I can see the top level folders for my email accounts in the sidebar of there Apple Mail App but I can't open any of them and I also seem to have lost some of the 'Favourites' as well as the 'All New Items' (Not sure if that is the right way it is titled).

Not sure what to do........

Mac mini, macOS 13.1

Well, at least some Favorites are already showing.


The names themselves being grey is perfectly normal.

These are not mailboxes or folders, they're labels for each section of the sidebar.


When parking the cursor at or near the word Favorites (resp., "On My Mac", "Smart Mailboxes", etc) - NOT clicking, are sure that the circled + and the ">" (or in the case of Favorites, a "V", as it is already open) are not showing?
