Tonight I have encountered some big problems with Outlook Express. When I first opened up my e-mail I got a "receiving" message. That is normal, however to still be getting the message after 2 hours is not. I got out of Outlook Express, shut down my computer, got back into Outlook, and deleted tons of old e-mails in my "sent" and "deleted" folders to try to fix the error. Still problems. After 2 hours, I went to my e-mail account on line and went through all of my e-mail accounts. Turns out one of my suppliers sent me 2 e-mail newletters. For some reason, one was having a challenge getting downloaded to Outlook on my desktop. I deleted the newsletter and I was good to go. Cool!
THEN, I noticed my long list of folders looked a little shorter than normal. Somehow 2 of my folders mysterioulsy dissappeared. Two IMPORTANT business folders I might add. I didn't delete the folders, but maybe some how the contents of those two folders ended up in my deleted e-mails. I have spent the last 2 hours trying to figure out how in the world to recover those precious folders. Normally it is very simple to recover lost e-mails. You go to "tools" and click on a wonderful little option called "restore deleted e-mails". For some unknown reason I don't have that option in my Outlook Express. The "help" section in Outlook states it is there, but it is not. It is there in Outlook at my full time job, but at home it is not. PERFECT!!
Does any one have any clue how or if it is even possible to recover my lost folders? If so, can you please enlighten me how to do it? It seems like there has to be a way to retrieve them, but I'm at a loss as to how.
