I had exported all of my e-mail from Outlook Express into MS Outlook

way to get back all of my mail? I guess my question is, is mail saved
on the server anywhere? Cyndi
What type of "System Recovery" did you do? If you used the recovery disk
your PC vendor supplied that reinstalls everything to factory defaults, then
you're out of luck.
If, however, you're speaking of Windows XP's "System Restore Points", the
stuff should still be in Outlook Express and you can reexport it. In fact,
it may still be available to Outlook. Search your HD for a file whose
extension is ".pst". Normally, it's in a hidden folder, so you'll have to
enable searching for hidden files and folders. If you find one, start
Outlook, click File>Open>Outlook Data File, browse to the PST you found,
select it, and click OK. You can then make that your delivery location at
the bottom of Tools>E_mail Accounts>Next.
