Joined OE Newsgroup but deleted husband's mail

Well a technician said that adding a newsgroup does (OE) dump the
deleted items folder..and does so on a regular basis as it loads mail

I followed the directions to sign up for the Outlook Express Newsgroup
(add newsgroup) on My husband's Outlook Express mail box and now
everything is gone from his folder "Deleted items" folder where he
was storing mail. Joining a Newsgroup does a "Clean Install" ..no
one mentioned this in the join up procedure. ANy way to retrieve
anything would be a happy ending.... Restore Points unsuccessful.
thank you Paula in Stockton ............ I am in trouble!

Ummm - the Deleted Items folder is for ITEMS THAT ARE DELETED! What
numbskull "stores" emails in the Deleted Items folder?

Sheeesh!

And joining a newsgroup should have NO effect on any mail folders AT ALL so
I don't quite know what you did.
