Thank you so much. I verified mail settings through the Apple site and changed some ports / settings accordingly and all Folders came back. Yay and thank you. Best, Patrick

Good question: What Happened?

After I reinstalled Monterey 12.6.1 evidently the incoming and outgoing ports were changed and I lost my Apple Mail Folders.

So I went to the Apple site that verifies email settings (Thank you, as I did not know there was one) and changed my ports to what it said and it worked great. Got all my Folders back and working well. Best, Patrick
