I am thinking it may have to do with going through a VPN. I turned it off and haven't noticed any missing mail since then. As per the last article you linked, I think that there may be an issue with forwarding.

* Forwarding, filters, or access using POP/IMAP any of which could be deleting messages.

I don't really know what this means, but I think that I had forwarded every email that I later could not locate.

And if that's the problem, I haven't the faintest idea how to resolve it.
