Ted, I believe the Outlook junk mail filter has caused loss of some of my emails. When I have hundreds of emails in my box on the server, some junk was not caught by the spamassasin on the server, the junk filter confused Outlook which in turn downloaded an email multiple times, then deleted all the email off the server. I have turned my Outlook junk filter off for now. I'm still determining if it is the problem. I haven't seen the problem since though.
