Didn´t want to sound rude.

You looked into ~/.local/share/akonadi/file_db_data/ and your mail client, 
didn´t find your mail and concluded that its not there anymore.

That conclusion is not valid.

~/.local/share/akonadi/file_db_data/ is not hint at all.

KMail is a hint in case the Akonadi cache is up to date and correct.

But the only definitive source for an answer is the storage location for 
the mail.

I wanted to help you to find your mail in case its important for you.
