Outlook Express how to access 'lost' mail

[Mike]

To help with an error in receiveing I took the following
action that I found on the Microsoft Web Site. I no
longer have the problem, but I also no longer have all the
messages that were in by previous inbox. I can see them
in a folder, but don't know how to access them.

Thanks for any help,
Mike

CAUSE
This behavior can occur if the Folders.dbx file is
missing, damaged, or using the read-only attribute.
RESOLUTION
Rename the Folders.dbx file:
Click Start, point to Find, and then click Files or
Folders.
In the Named box, type folders.dbx.
In the Look In box, click your primary hard disk (usually
drive C), and then click Find Now.
Right-click the Folders.dbx file, and then click Rename.
Type folders.old, and then click OK.
Start Outlook Express. This creates a new Folders.dbx file
automatically.
