Email lost in Personal Folders

[Don]

I was moving new emails into individual files that I created in Outlook 2007
and accidentally dropped one email into the main "Personal Folders" file. Is
there a way to get this email back or is it lost forever? Why would it allow
you to do this if you can't figure out how to get it back? Should I suggest
something be done about this in the next release?

Conduct an Advanced Find on your Personal Folders (Outlook Today) folder and when you find your item, either Edit->Move to Folder, or drag and drop to the location you choose.

Thank you for the reply and that did take care of it. Sometimes I get a
little quick with moving stuff around and this was the end result.
