Recover Local Named Folder?
Hi:
I have a friend who inadvertently deleted a local named folder "Saved Inbox Mail" that contained a number of local folders under it. Is there anyway that I can recover this Outlook Express 6 local folder that would have these subfolders within it? Thanks |

Re: Recover Local Named Folder?
Although there are subfolders, they are really separate folders.
Have you checked Deleted Items for the missing folders? What is the Windows version? If XP/SP2, are there bak files for the missing folders in either the Recycle Bin, or Message Store? -- Bruce Hagen MS-MVP Outlook Express Imperial Beach, CA "ColTom2" <noemailaddress@nomail.com> wrote in message news:OKaphfraIHA.1212@TK2MSFTNGP05.phx.gbl... > Hi: > > I have a friend who inadvertently deleted a local named folder "Saved > Inbox Mail" that contained a number of local folders under it. > > Is there anyway that I can recover this Outlook Express 6 local folder > that would have these subfolders within it? > > Thanks > > |

Re: Recover Local Named Folder?
Hi Bruce:
He has XP/SP2 and all items deleted in OE are set to be auto deleted when OE is exited so there is nothing in the Recycle Bin. As to the Message Store how would I find them there and if they are there then recover this folder? I would think it would be named Saved Inbox Mail.dbx?

Search the whole hard drive for SAV*.DBX 2. When found, note its full filespec, then import its messages into OE the usual way. -- Don Phillipson Carlsbad Springs (Ottawa, Canada) |

Nevertheless, is there one or more files named 'SAVED INBOX MAIL.BAK' in
Recycle Bin? -- ~PA Bear ColTom2 wrote: > Hi Bruce: > > He has XP/SP2 and all items deleted in OE are set to be auto deleted when > OE is exited so there is nothing in the Recycle Bin.

Re: Recover Local Named Folder?
Deleted Items is in Outlook Express. The Recycle Bin is on the Desktop. Two
different things. When OE compacts, a copy of all dbx files will be sent to the Recycle Bin, and or, the message store. These files have an extension of bak, rather than dbx. Check both the Recycle Bin and the message store for bak files for the missing folders. Note: You have a folder named Saved Inbox Mail with subfolders. There will be a file for each folder, not just Saved Inbox Mail. They are separate folders as far as OE is concerned, even if they were under one folder. The message store location: Tools | Options | Maintenance | Store Folder will reveal the location of your Outlook Express files. Write down the location down and navigate to it in Windows Explorer. In WinXP, Win2K & Win2K3, the OE user files (DBX and WAB) are by default marked as hidden. To view these files in Windows Explorer, you must enable Show Hidden Files and Folders under Start | Control Panel | Folder Options Icon | View, or in Windows Explorer | Tools | Folder Options | View. Look for the following and post back before you do anything. Are there bak, and or dbx files for Saved Inbox Mail /and/ all the subfolders in the message store? How you restore depends on what you find. -- Bruce Hagen MS-MVP Outlook Express Imperial Beach, CA "ColTom2" <noemailaddress@nomail.com> wrote in message news:eA24wtraIHA.5208@TK2MSFTNGP04.phx.gbl... > Hi Bruce: > > He has XP/SP2 and all items deleted in OE are set to be auto deleted when > OE is exited so there is nothing in the Recycle Bin.
