all of my email folders are gone. all of them.

under 'help' i checked 'detect and repair' trying to clean up toolbar
settings because apparently i am an idiot, and i checked 'discard my
customized settings, etc...' and when i went back to outlook, everything was
gone. there was no warning to save everything. i trusted that restore to
default meant restore microsoft settings, not destroy my stuff.

is there a way to get all my saved mail back? i save a lot of stuff and i
want it back.
 
Take a look here, it may help:
