(I'm using Windows 2000/pro on a Gateway Computer.)

I had a folder in Outlook Express with a title of Cars, and
a corresponding folder Cars.dbx viewable via Windows
Explorer. The folder was getting large, so I moved various
messages into three newly created folders, Ford, Chevy,
Jeep - at least I thought that was what I did. However, in
Outlook Express I now have only the folders Cars, Ford, and
Chevy - but no folder for Jeep. When I use Windows Explorer
I find Cars.dbx, Ford.dbx, Chevy.dbx, and Jeep.dbx. The
Jeep.dbx folder has ~7,000 KB of contents, which seems about
right.

My problem is how can I access the email stored in that
Jeep.dbx folder, since there is no Jeep folder in Outlook
Express?

(I created a new folder in Outlook Express, named Jeep, but
that didn't do it. Via Windows Explorer that merely
resulted in a new folder titled Jeep(1).dbx. having 75 KB.
Unsuccessful attempt.)

Any assistance appreciated.
