Hello,

I was in outlook 6 and added a new folder.
After adding the folder I created a Message Rule.
I then applied the message to all the folders
and everything including what was in my sent folder and deleted folder
was moved to the new folder!

AUGH!

I then thought I would be smart and move everything to the Inbox - which
it
didn't like -
after about 8 minutes, an error popped up saying, 'Can't Move File'.
The Inbox wouldn't even accept 1 email, even when it was coming in from
the
server.
I then closed of the folders and "compact all folders".
The Inbox now works, however, I lost 4 months worth of emails!

I would really like to get them back,

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated,

Chuck
