"shift + delete" - any way to undo this ?

B

Bill TGH

in OE6, I habitually hit "shift + delete" on spam & jokes.... sadly, I seem
to have deleted the entire .dbx folder rather than just the single eMail I
was sending to heaven....

is there any way to "undo" this form of delete ?

I have searched for any renamed .dbx file, but no luck.... so if the info is
still there, it has been renamed ( any suggestions as to what name or
address # would be assignded to a deleted file... ie 4x77.tmp ?) & if I can
acces the location of the info, can I reconstitute it as a .dbx file so OE6
can read the eMails ?
