Not being very proficient in Outlook, I'm not quite sure. I think I saw a
pst folder but am not quite sure how to access or open that folder.
I sent a request to our network technical support but have not gotten a
response yet. my experience has been that I get quicker and better responses
in this forumn. thanks

I've no dealings with exchange; that said are you using a pst, on the
local
pc, or ost? If the latter I believe there would be a backup on the server,
if pst, are there any other pst's on the local pc
(pst & ost being the OL data file)

I checked and I don't see that the view menu is set to "unread messages"
where do these emails go when they disappear and are they recoverable?
thanks

Views are under 'View|Current View' ('View|Arrange By|Current View' in
Outlook 2003) and if set to "Unread messages in this folder", all read
messages will "disappear".

In reference to your response to views, could you please give me a
little
more detail.

pertaining to Archives, I'm quite sure that the email was not
configured
to
be automatically archived

As to the server, I am on a private network (Citrix) using the
Microsoft
exchange server.

You might have to wait a bit longer than 5mins for a constructive
response.

For now try these;
Have the Views been changed?
Have they been archived?
Is this a pop or exchange sys?
