If you were using OE 5 or higher before, search your hard drive for
Inbox.dbx
(If you are using WinXP you will have to set the search to include
hidden files and folders.)

If you find two copies, use OE's File | Import | Messages | Microsoft
Outlook Express 6 and choose to import from an OE6 store directory.
Browse
to the folder holding the older Inbox.dbx.
