Default Deleted Outlook Express folders with emails

Hi all,

Yesterday, I accidently deleted the folders with emails of a friend who
had somehow managed to put all there folders in the Deleted Items
section. I emptied this section without realising these folders were in
there.

Is there a way to recover these folders and emails?

If so, would someone please point me in the right direction to a program
or solution to deal with this?

Many thanks for any assistance,
Antony

Do the dbx files for the folders still exist?

Tools | Options | MaintenanceStore folder will reveal the location
of your Outlook Express files. Press the Tab key to highlight the folder
location, then Ctrl+C. Close OE, then Start | Run | Ctrl+V will put the
location in the box - Click OK and you'll see the OE files. Otherwise, write
the location down and navigate to it in Windows Explorer.

In Windows XP, 2K & 3K, the OE user files (DBX and WAB) are by default
marked as hidden. To view these files in Explorer, you must enable Show
Hidden Files and Folders under Start | Control Panel | Folder Options |
View.

In Windows Explorer, click on the file and drag it to the Desktop. Open OE
and create a folder with the *exact* same name as the one on your desktop.
***Copy a message from any folder to the new one. You MUST do this.*** Close
OE. Go back to Windows Explorer and Click Desktop and drag the folder from
the Desktop to the OE store folder that you clicked on to reveal the .dbx
files. Prompt - "Do you want to overwrite......."? Click Yes.

The only thing that will work at this point is DBXpress in the extract from
disk mode. It will pull the messages off the disk clusters. See
www.oehelp.com/DBXpress/

Its the only program that will do this.
