Are you sure his messages are gone from the inbox if you can see them on the M-drive? It sounds like the classic where he has changed the 'View' in inbox from 'Messages' to 'Unread Messages'.

He has other folders which contain a lot of e-mail and they are there. I looked at M:\ drive and under his mail box (inbox) he has 50 or so messages. I do not back up the Exchange yet. How do I retrieve his messages? Exchange 2000 SP3 Thanks. ------------------------------------------------------ List Archives: http://www.webelists.com/cgi/lyris.pl?enter=exchangelist Exchange Newsletters: http://www.msexchange.org/pages/newsletter.asp Exchange FAQ: http://www.msexchange.org/pages/larticle.asp?type=FAQ ------------------------------------------------------ ISA Server Resource Site: http://www.isaserver.org Windows Security Resource Site: http://www.windowsecurity.com/ Windows 2000/NT Fax Solutions: http://www.ntfaxfaq.com ------------------------------------------------------ You are currently subscribed to this MSExchange.org Discussion List as: exchange@xxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send a blank email to $subst('Email.Unsub')
