After downoading my email into the inbox, I cannot view the email. I can see the one line entry in the window but the body of the message does not appear. I cannot double-click on the email to read it either.
What build are you using (M13 or a more recent nightly build)? Is you mail account POP or IMAP? Are you being prompted for a password when you download new messages? Are you sure you're entering the right password? I see similar results on IMAP accounts, where, after I enter a wrong password, I don't get an alert, but I do see the message headers in the thread pane. When I click on one, the message body doesn't appear in the message pane, either. If you're talking about a POP account, you could try deleting the .msf file corresponding to that folder. (Lisa, where is that on Windows?) Double-click on the message doesn't work yet.
On Windows, the .msf file is in the Users50 directory. Or, you can use the Find tool in Explorer to search for *.msf file that corresponds to your inbox (ie. inbox.msf).

Absent further input from the reporter, I'm resolving this worksforme.
Michael, I received your bitmap in email. Does this problem still happen in a current build?
mtefft@mindspring.com - try to rename/move your localstore.rdf file and see if that helps.
marking verified. Michael Tefft emailed me and says this problem was fixed in a recent build. Thanks!
