(Tech Support) Disappearing folders in Outlook
It's that time again. :D

A couple of OE folders have disappeared from the main OE window. I looked and found that the folders weren't listed in folders.dbx, but the individual dbx files still existed. Is there any way to get the folders back without using some third-party tool?

I've tried importing but it doesn't seem to work.

I had this problem just the other day... are they local folders or some kind of web directory?  If they are online somewhere, try copying all of the messages back to your inbox there and deleting the folder, then re-creating it in outlook.  I know this happens if you use a program other than Outlook to rename a folder in an IMAP account anyway, so it'd be worth a try if it's possible.
who needs a signature? ;)
It's not much of an excuse for a website, but my stuff can be found here
