I used the DBXtract and it appears to only retrieve e-
mails that are current on my system.

I was using my laptop with the Sprint PCS Connection card
and left the laptop to retrieve e-mail messages. The
computer ran out of battery power and died during
receiving e-mail process.........since then it appears
that I have lost the last 4 months of e-mails. They are
not in my delted folder or anywhere else that a non-
computer programming person like myself can find.

If they were deleted do they exsist? Where? I tried the
search for .dbx files on my C drive, but they do not
exsist. Does this sound like something a PC can do...lose
e-mails if it gets shut down in the middle of receiving e-
mails??

THANKS FOR ANY GREAT PERSON THAT CAN HELP ME!!!!

If you can give the complete story then someone may be able to assist.

A system doesn't 'delete' stored data when it closes down, violently of cleanly.

You can look to the email archive folder and recover from there, any files you think were deleted.
 
where is the e-mail archive folder?

....The whole story is....

The Compact messages in background was chosen...I
deselected it
I tried to defragment my PC
The first time I noticed all the e-mails missing was
after a day of my pc getting stuck/jammed up, ...I even
restored the PC.
Finally I let Microsoft Outlook Express just lag until
finally opened and it was stuck from the day prior in
midst of receiving 44 heavy e-mails...and then I noticed
the missing 4 months worth of e-mails
....
