Outlook 2003:
1. If you delete complete task folders, the tasks don't end up in the
deleted items (though Outlook asks for a confirmation stating that items wil
be put there).
2. The Tasks are still somewhere in the pst file yet in an 'unindexed' way
(don t know if that is the right term), so you can't see them in any view. I
could retrieve them: a reference was stored in Google desktop where one can
select 'Show in Outlook' - if the task is no longer in the pst file, you get
an error message. My 'lost ' tasks misteriously showed up and i could use the
menu command: Move to folder... . So to me that's proof the deleted task were
still somewhere in the pst file.
3. If you delete complete task folders you are unaware that you are also
deleting task subfolders. In the normal task view you can't tell which folder
is subfolder to which. You have to use the folder view, something I've never
used before with tasks.
Combining 1/2/3: you're in for a couple of houres nailbiting.

The bottom line is that you should ALWAYS use the Folder List view when you
are trying to understand your Folder heirarchy, find any deleted stuff or
anything that's "lost".

I ONLY use Folder List and Shortcuts. The other views are all filtered and
hide stuff.
