check the location C:\Documents and Settings\USER NAME\Local Settings\Application Data\Microsoft\Outlook
this is where your messages are stored, if not search for .pst files.

If you find them you can import them into the system
 
i did look at this folder but all i so was the folder at the present, all the previous folders that i had is gone and i also found a cleanup log file and i saw my folders in this cleanup log, so i guess it was actually deleted by the system. this is the second time that it happened. the 1st time i thought that there was a problem in my pc so i reformatted the hd. i just searched for the *.pst files and can't find it in my pc.
thanks anyway... :(
 
As far as I can remember, Outlook Express does not work with .PST files. However, Outlook does.

Kind regards,
Willem Moolenaar

Also Hi EP and people. I found this place again while looking through a oooollllllldddd backup. I have filled over 10TB and was looking at my collection of antiques. Any bids on the 500Mhz Win 95 fix?
Any of the SP crew still out there?

Impressed you have kept this alive this long EP! So many sites have come and gone. :(

Just did some crude math and I apparently joined almost 18yrs ago, how is that possible???
