Recover of overwrited Outlook PST file

[aht01]

Hello,

At the installation of Outlook 2003, I have by mistake overwrited my
Outlook.pst file.
All my mails of the last 6 years, which was on my backup disk and
2.5GB large, i have overwrited with a "blanc" pst file, created by
Outlook and with a size of +/- 8MB.

In the meantime I have on this backupdrive D:\ nothing modified.
In fact, i have overwritten my "mail" pst file of 2.5Gb by a "blanc =
empty" pst SMALER file of 8Mb, because they have the same name =
outlook.pst.

Is there a tool to recover my mails, or a part of them.

Thanks,
aht01

That wouldn't make it an Outlook issue; you've overwritten your own files
and file recovery tools might be covered in a generic Windows newsgroup. If
you're running Windows Vista you can use the Previous Version feature to
restore.

Tip for the future; protect your backup location; make the it write only for
normal use and read/write for administrator use.
