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 "Gordon" wrote: "paula" wrote in message ... 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. |

Couple of things to try
(1) Check that you're checking the right "Deleted Items" folder. You may have more than one in your list of folders. (2) If you can also access your email via the web ie by logging on to the relevant website (eg hotmail.com for a hotmail account etc) then try accessing the mail account in that way, to see what you may be able to retrieve Jon wrote in message ...

Hello Carey..Well your tech support told me that adding a newsgroup in O.E.
does set up a daily trash-take out..It does empty the "deleted items folder" and they said it does it as a regular part of it's setup. DO you know about this? "Carey Frisch [MVP]" wrote: Joining an Outlook Express newsgroup does not perform a "clean install" and does not delete any files. You must have inadvertently emptied the "Deleted Items" folder.
