Somehow I deleted a folder in Outlook Express. I had it backed up and tried
to copy it from my backup CD to C:\WINDOWS\Application Data\Identities
(where all my other Outlook Express folders are located) using Windows
Explorer. I also removed the read only designation. The folder and mail
files appear in Windows Explorer now, but I cannot find them in Outlook
Express. Can any one help me?

Hi - the experts in the OE groups may be able to. This is a group to support
Outlook from the Office group of programs.
Outlook Express is a part of Internet Explorer and is a quite different
program, despite its similar name..

Try posting in one of these newsgroups:
microsoft.public.windows.inetexplorer.ie5.outlookexpress for OE 5.x
microsoft.public.windows.inetexplorer.ie55.outlookexpress for OE 5.5x
microsoft.public.windows.inetexplorer.ie6_outlookexpress for OE 6.x
microsoft.public.internet.outlookexpress.mac for OE for Macintosh

If those groups aren't carried on the news server that's carrying this group
try using msnews.microsoft.com (MS's public news server that's the source
for all the microsoft.public newsgroups).

If you're accessing the Microsoft newsgroups through the MS Product Support
Services Community Newsgroups web interface, click
http://communities.microsoft.com/new...ternetExplorer
to get to the Internet Explorer groups, then click the plus sign next to
your version of IE to see the link to the Outlook Express group for that
version number.
