Inbox Folder Gone

[Guest]

After having run the repair program for my pst file scanpst.exe, e-mails
showed up into a folder under LOST AND FOUND and that's where new e-mails are
arriving as well. The INBOX folder is gone. How do I create INBOX and get new
e-mails to divert there?

Thanks.

You can use the /resetfolders switch to start outlook with and all the
default folders will be back

I tried but nothing changed. I did create a flolder called INBOX manually and
moved my e-mails there but new incoming e-mails are still going to the
RECOVERED FOLDER. Can I divert new e-mails to the INBOX folder now? How?

Have you tried to setup a rule that diverts all incoming mail to the INBOX
folder?

The easiest way - or at least most complete, in my opinion - to correct this
is to create a new PST, make it the delivery location (which will fill it
with all new default folders), then move the data from the broken PST to the
new one. I can give a detailed procedure if you need it.
