Default Can't see mail folders

Suddenly, I am unable to see my Inbox/Deleted Mail., etc folders using
Windows Explorer. As far as I can get is C:/Documents and
Settings/Owner/Application Data but nothing is listed under Application
Data. I was always able to see the folders even when "show all files" wasn't
checked - its the way Win XP Home came. I don't remember changing anything.
Anyone ran across this? Thanks

Ron

Those are viewed through your mail program, not Windows Explorer.

I have done a search of my C drive for *.dbx but none are found.

Mine used to be also. Now the tree only goes to "Documents and
Settings/Owner" and some unrelated folders below that. There aren't any
Application Data/Identies.....folders shown.

I would do a scandisk and check for system file errors sounds like something is amiss there.
