My entire archive of my umra posts has vanished.

I had them in a folder in OE labelled "umra", and I moved posts from "sent items" every so often. The last time I did this was on 10th March. I just went to do it again and found "umra" wasn't there.

I've just tried googling for "outlook express bak recovery" and that came up with quite a few suggestions, including some Microsoft sites. On the whole, they looked rather more complicated than the umratic ideas, so only worth trying if they fail. You can find the results at <http://snipurl.com/1eoc9>.

I would second the suggestion of having a further search for the missing folder, in case it has been dragged and dropped somewhere surprising. When I did that (in Thunderbird, rather than OE though), I found it by doing a search in Thunderbird for a subject / sender that I thought would occur in the missing folder. Will OE let you do something similar?
