Hi, I use 2000 for one of my machines and Outlook Express 6 for emails. When I logged on today and started OE all my older emails were there but no new emails. So I closed out the program and started again. This time I got new emails but all my older ones disappeared! I closed out and tried again and the new ones disappeared too. The new ones have since returned but not the old ones. The weird thing is that it's only happening to emails in my main Inbox folder. All other email accounts/folders are fine. I tried Nortons Systemworks 2006 and CCleaner but no luck getting my old emails back. I remembered a program called ScanDBX that fixed a virus or some problem I had years ago. Is that worth trying? My antivirus (Avast) shows the machine virus-free. Please help. I'd hate to think I lost 1000's of emails. : (
