There is something call the 'Reset E-mail Status Utility' you may be able to use to solve this problem. It has been YEARS since I've used it, but IF YOU HAVE NOT compacted your Trash folder, it should work.

It utilized an exe file called: tbrststs.exe

You can search Google for that file name and other keywords such as "undelete," etc. I do not remember exactly how it's done, so you should look for detailed instructions in your Google search.

There are also a few posts in MozillaZine about it, such as:

A direct link to get the tbrstss.exe file is:

Key #1: resetting the statuses of the deleted e-mails you want to retrieve. Change the status (X-Status) to all zero.

Key #2: back up your original mail folders first, in case it goes bad!

Key #3: Do key #2 BEFORE key #1. ;-)


Good luck!!!
