Mike, This is for recovering email that has been accidently dragged and dropped into the top level folder where it is lost from view. The top level folder is called in: - Outlook 97 - 'Mailbox (your, name)' folder. - Outlook 2000 - 'Outlook Today - [Mailbox - (your, name)]' folder. - Outlook XP 2002 - 'Outlook Today - [Mailbox - (your, name)]' folder.
If you think you might of lost email this way, you can recover it by doing the following: Outlook 97 Its easy. From the main Outlook screen: 1. ensure that 'folder list' is showing: click 'View' menu then 'Folder list' to switch it on or off. 2. click on the 'Mailbox - (your.name)' folder - see any lost mail. 3. drag it back into your 'Inbox' folder. Outlook 2000 Its relatively easy: 1. ensure that 'folder list' is showing: click 'View' menu then 'Folder list' to switch it on or off. 2. click on the 'Outlook Today - [Mailbox (your.name)]' folder. 3. click on the 'View' menu then the 'Show Folder Home Page' option - see missing files (if any). 4. drag it back into your 'Inbox' folder. Outlook XP 2002 It can be done in the web version of Outlook: 1. start Internet Explorer or other web browser. 2. into the address line type: exchange.lancs.ac.uk/exchange 3. when asked for your user name type: lancs\(your Windows username) then below enter your usual password. 4. click OK - see the 'Outlook Web Access' client. 5. click on 'Surname, name' folder at the top left - see your missing files. 6. drag it back into your 'Inbox' folder.
