I'm in Fredericksburg, VA and it has been down all day. Has Verizon provided any explanation on the outage or an estimate for time to recover?

I'm thrilled! the first of the month and ALL my credit card bills, utility bills, bank statements and other important emails from other creditors and tenants covering all the rentals I own appear to be lost.
Thanks Verizon.

Re. the empty folders (mine, too) ...
The empty folders shouldn't mean that incoming mail (into Verizon's servers) during the outage was lost. Incoming mail should have been refused by Verizon's servers and stored for retry-transmission sender-side. (Internet mail is a humongous store-and-forward contraption.) It often takes many hours for the retransmissions to trickle in. End-to-end, the result should be mail that's delayed, but not dropped.
Restoring messages received before the outage will be about Verizon's backup procedures, a separate issue.

finally able to log into e-mail.
However, only have e-mail in my inbox that was received after 2:51 PM today. None of the folders on my account exist, nor does the sent folder contain any e-mail that was previously sent. e-mail or any e-mail that was in my inbox - COMPLETELY UNACCEPTABLE.

I have only heard (via phone automated message) that they're aware of an email problem and are working to restore it.
Hearsay in this thread has said customer service has given a 24-48h estimate.
No Verizon employee has posted in this thread with explanation, description, or ETR.
At least one Verizon tagged person (Heather_VZ) has posted in this thread that it is being investigated (and may have said it was being worked on). Message 79. I have not seen a posting from an official associated with the company since page 8, but might have missed one.

Email is back up in Newton, MA, but only one message is in the queue. It may take time to restore.
I have sent test messages to my verizon account and they did not bounce, so I'm hopeful.

After not being able to receive new e mails for several hours, I uplugged the router and replugged after a minute. One new e mail arrived on the PC, not on the iphone (messages always arrive in both places) In addition, all existing messages that were in the inbox on the Verizon server have disappeared
