Default Lost e-mail in conversion

I recently converted from OE to Outlook 2007 and now I can't find all of the
e-mails I had in previously saved folders. They don't show up when I open OE
either. Is there a way to recover them?

If you Exported your msgs from OE to OL they will all be there
However if you Imported in OL from OE all the dates will have been ammended
to the import date

Check the various views in OL, as if they are no longer in OE they must be
somewhere in OL

And to add to what DL said, at no time does exporting from OE to OL or
importing from OE using OL ever delete any of the transferred messages.
Unless you purposefully (or accidentally) deleted them, they'll still be
there. The transfer process didn't do it.
