Outlook just lost the last six months of my emails. It occasionally decides to “compact” the current emails I have, which generally has no problems; not this time. I think I might be able to recover them, but I am not certain. Feh!

Phew! I found the old mailbox files in the Recycling Bin and replaced the truncated DBX files with the BAK files. All seems to be fine now and I have my emails back, but I think I am going to try switching to Thunderbird. [:coffee:]

Yeah Outlook blows. I use it at work, and I’ve deleted whole folders inadvertently before. It’s partly my fault, though, since I flippantly and liberally use the “Shift+Delete” function with abandon.
