Why are my unread e-mails disappearing

[Guest]

My outlook 2003 removes my unread e-mails after a day or so.
Is there some sort of time limit on this? Most of the mail are links to
world newscasts that I haven't had time to view. I checked the archives,
nothing there and nothing in the deleted box.
This is a new laptop and it only happens with outlook. On our other machine
using outlook express everything is fine?

from which folder? if unread mail folder, do you have it configured to only
show new unread mail? are you opening the mailbox with another email client?
