important email GONE!

[Toni]

I am using Outlook Express. I just spent many hours
writing a very important email. While writing it I saved
it periodically to the "drafts" folder. When I was
finally done with it, I clicked on "send." However, just
as I clicked on send I realized that I hadn't specified
any recipients and that I would be asked to do so.
However, I wasn't asked to do so. Instead the email just
VANISHED. It no longer exists in my "drafts" folder, nor
in "inbox" "outbox" "sent items" or "deleted items." This
is a very important email and desperately am hoping to
recover it. Does anyone have any idea where it may have
gone?

I had the same thing happened to me. However, I lost all
my emails today and I had over 100 in there. My computer
froze, rebooted and click on OUtlook and they were all
gone. Anyone please help us.

Try posting this in an Outlook Express news group - this is not one of them.
Outlook is a part of Microsoft Office and is what this group supports.
Outlook Express is a part of Internet Explorer and has its own news groups.
