I forgot to check the "leave a copy of messages on POP3 server" box when I
set up my Outlook 2003 account with my verizon.net e-mail address. The
problem is these e-mails are for my company and my boss likes to check them
from her computer, but mine downloaded some of them and now they're off the
server. (One of the e-mails contains an embarassing pic of her that her
boyfriend sent to that address. I don't want her to know I saw it.) Is
there a way to restore them to the server?? Please help!
 
Not really. You could forward them but that would leave evidence in the
header. I think the best you can do is export them to a PST, import them on
her machine while she's not around and mark them as unread on her machine.
She'd probably still notice, though.

Nope. You can remail them, but they'd be all from you instead of the
original senders.
