Thanks. I think before downloading (or buying) a whole utlitity program at
this point, I'll just wait and hope the senders whose messages were
rejected, will send them again. Thanks, anyway, though.

Only files go to the Recycle Bin. Messages aren't files, they are just
some data within a file like text within a word processing document. Even
though there are folders within Outlook Express they aren't real Windows
folders.

If you haven't compacted your OE folders yet, you might be able to recover
some of the messages using one of these utilities:

Is there any way to undelete deleted messages that have been deleted from
the deleted items folder? Would they be in the Recycle Bin or anywhere
else? My phone line was down due to a storm, and my ISP (BellSouth)
started returning messages because my mailbox was full (they don't allow
much space!). I had a bunch of messages from them, most of which I
didn't bother to read because it's usually from one sender, who sends
huge things. Now I find out there were at least 2 important messages from
other people that I didn't know about.
