My wife was connected remotely to her desktop at work and I was interfering
with the way she was doing things in outlook. She was storing all of her
“important†messages in the deleted folder rather than creating a folder in
which to store the 1700 items. I told her to create a folder and move the
messages so they’d be stored a little more safely. She created a folder in
the inbox, ctrl+a to select all messages, rt click drag to move, select move
with attachments (or that’s what we thought it said at a glance!). outlook
created a new message with all of the messages attached to it. We closed the
newly-created message since that isn’t what we wanted. I then told her that
she needed to have the new folder in her mailbox, not her inbox so we moved
it and tried to move the messages to the folder again and – they were gone!
When you get done laughing, is there any hope?
btw - ctrl+z was not availabe!
