first - I hope everyone is ok 
after that massive hurricane!
It even hit us here in western 
Pennsylvania. I lost power 
last sunday night and
I just got it back!! It is 
blamed on the hurricane - we 
had wind gusts to 80 mph.
I can't even imagine what it 
was like down in that main 
hurricane area after how it 
was here!

on to my problem!

Just before we lost power - I 
don't believe it had anything 
to do with that,
I came in to turn the computer 
off and Outlook Express said 
it had an error and had to 
close. When I restarted it, my 
in box was gone - well, lets 
say, all of my saved emails in 
my inbox were gone! POOF!! it 
had only 4 new emails in it.
So now after these  days 
without power, I booted my 
computer and opened OE, and it 
brought in new emails, but all 
of my old inbox emails are 
gone.

Is there a way to get them 
back? or did it delete my 
original inbox dbx file? that 
is my guess - but I thought I 
would ask, just in case.

thanks!
Cris
