Where has all the mail gone from my inbox ? It's not in the deleted folder or the sent or anti spam folders either. It's just completely and inexplicably dissapeared ?????

Any similar experiences and fixes ??

Check all your folders in case of drag & drop errors.

Reboot.

u need to use Thunderbird ( the email client, not the puppets) 😉

Outlook Express = The Spawn of Satan.

Thunderbird is go!

Oh – are you using McAfee by any chance?

all the emails are stored in individual .dbx files – they are controlled by a master dbx file – you may need to delete it, then relaunch OE, it should recreate the file and all your emails 'should' re-appear.

google it for better instructions – do a backup of your dbx files (inbox.dbx etc) before you start

disclaimer – it may not work…

googlemail is a million times better than outlookxps
