It is what I thought it might be, smile, and I am slowly getting some of the information back, or at least seeking it, sigh, smile.
But, not cool OE, I know you thought I had way too much junk, but you didn't have to purge it like this.
Sue, what happened is while Outlook Express was compacting messages Windows crashed and restarted itself, so naturally when I opened OE again, all and every single message was gone!
My folder structure is there, my message rules are in place, the messages are just not there.
I can see the .bac files in my Recycle Bin, which I know OE makes while compressing files as a back up, but I can't see how to take those bac files and do something with them, smile. Picking restore does nothing, and Import only allows me to import from another email program, which I don't want to do. This wouldn't be so bad except I also misplaced a thumb drive, and that had my training journal on it, and well, am aggrevated beyond belief. I know I can get the stuff back it is just going to take time.

Pedantry and mastery are opposite attitudes toward rules. To apply a rule to the letter, rigidly, unquestioningly, in cases where it fits and in cases where it does not fit, is pedantry... To apply a rule with natural ease, with judgment, noticing the cases where it fits, and without ever letting the words of the rule obscure the purpose of the action or the opportunities of the situation, is mastery. -George Polya, professor of mathematics (1887-1985)

Hi Shelley,

I have Outlook Express, and I hate to tell you this, but when things
disappear from the deleted items folder, they are just gone. They do not go to the recycle bin!!! Any more good news I can help you with? (smile) Not 
funny, I know.

Good luck,
Sue S.

Hi Evan, I can't seem to figure out how to do this.  But all i see in my
recycle bin is the .bac files for each of the folders. Am i to assume that 
I lost everything?

Hey Shelly, if you are sure the email is in the Recycle bin, you can
import all the messages back into your Outlook Express. You don't have to
know what the original error was. If they are in there, you can import
them back again. All this assumes they weren't corrupted, of course. If
the folder compaction was actually happening when the shutdown occurred,
then you may well lose one or more of your folders. I know because it
happened to me.
If you are sure they are in your Recycle bin, go into OE and arrow down to 
Import on the File menu and follow the prompts in that dialogue box. You
have to tell OE where the messages are, and it will import any that are
not corrupted back into their original folder structure if it can.

Good luck and let me know if you need more details.

Evan

Shelly, can you tell me what the error was before it shut down?

Hi everyone, I need some big help.
I was doing a compression of my Outlook Express email and lost my email, 
Microsoft Windows did a serious error and shut down.

How do I restore my mail from the back up files that are in the recycle
bin, or can I?  Is the mail lost for good?

help, smile.
