Inbox from Webmail empty

[Jennifer]

I tried to hook up my Yahoo mail to Outlook 2007 and I did not check the box
to keep a duplicate copy of messages in my Yahoo inbox. I have resoved that
problem however all my yahoo inbox was moved to outlook. How do I get those
messages back in my yahoo inbox? I was told by yahoo support I have to
re-email them one by one back. Really not an option since it is 400+ emails.

Is there any way to resolve this error.

I you want them as separate e-mails, yep, you will have to e-mail them
back to your Yahoo mailbox one by one (and as attachments so the headers
remain intact for the original e-mail that gets attached).

You could create one e-mail into which you drag all the other e-mails.
You would get 1 e-mail with 400+ attachments (and which could exceed the
maximum size per e-mail allowed by the e-mail provider).

Of course, when you e-mail them back to your Yahoo mailbox, all those
e-mails will look like they came from you, not from the original
senders. You don't have admin access to their mail server. Never will.
So there is no way for you to put back all those retrieved e-mails just
like they were before.

No, Yahoo! support is correct.

Not true! I figured out how to keep outlook from removing the emails
from my webmail. I also found out how to move the emails back that
were removed from webmail in the first place. The process is quite
simple and all messages can be moved at once. If you have this problem
as well, feel free to email me at (e-mail address removed) and I will
help you move your messages back.

Post the details here, if you have any. I suspect your methods don't work for
Yahoo or any POP account, but I'd love it if you prove me incorrect.
