How do I get back an edited attachment?

[Sathyaish]

I opened up an attachment, an rtf file, without saving it first,
edited it and then clicked File->Save instead of File->Save As. Then,
I closed it.

How do I get the edited file back?

In Office 2003 I could go to %USERPROFILE%\Local Settings\Temporary
Internet Files\SOME_RANDOMLY_NAMED_FOLDER
\all_versions_of_my_file_named_with_a_version_in_paranthesis(x).rtf

If the file still exists, it will be at C:\Documents and
Settings\username\Local Settings\Temporary Internet Files\Content.Outlook\,
in a subfolder. I've noticed outlook 2007 is better about cleaning up after
itself, so you might not find it.
