Lost e-mails

[Matt]

One of our users accidentally moved an email from her
Inbox to the "Outlook Today -[Mailbox]" folder. Since this
isnt actually a mail folder, i was able to do a search and
dig up some emails that were put there. Some of her emails
weren't there. Is there a way that i can find "lost"
emails? Emails that might just go to a non-mail folder
like the one she put in by accident?

If you do a search of the whole .PST file or mailbox, you should be able
to find all messages. Outlook Today is a regular folder which just
happens to be showing the Outlook Today page as a folder home page. If
you go into the properties for that folder and temporarily disable the
folder home page, you'll see a regular folder view, and if there are
still messages in that folder, you can drag them out.
