Hello,

Does anyone know how to get archived messages appear again in their original
folder ?

The thing is:
For some time I felt like some of my folders were gradually smaller; up to
the time when sometimes I thought I had a folder named XYZ but couldn't see
it anymore in Windows Mail.

During the week-end ... surprise !!!!
I was looking for an old message and no idea on the folder it was stored in
(I have quite a number).
So I run a search on messages older then 2006 and found my message including
many other old messages in the search window. When I clicked on the message
in the search window I could view it in full, but it sill does not appear in
my folders.

=> Apparently my messages are automativally archived after a certain amount
of time. But they disappear from the folder they were filed into, but don't
disappear completly.

I would like to view these filed messages in the folder they were stored.
Does anyone have an idea ?

Thank you in advance for your help

PS: I don't recall having set up an archive routine. I wonder where does
this filing mechanisme come from ?
 
Are yoo perhaps mixing WinMail and Outlook?
The latter has an archiving feature, WinMail doesn't.
