Completed lengthy email after 2 hours work, changed email account to send from and it completely disappeared and is not in my Drafts folder. How can I recover it please? Using Outlook 2007 on Windows 7. Thanks. |

Yeap, that' an annoying 'feature' of Outlook 2007... Do you still have the original email? If so, the only way you can get it back is by having the email open and selecting the Undo button on the Quick Access toolbar (top left corner). Alison |

Not sure if this will work but, computers have a date time that you can revert to, find this and go back to the date you created the email - reset your comoputer and it should be viewable - somebody will read this and explain it a bit better - best of luck In the mean time, invest in a external hard drive and create back ups at least once a week |

Don't think this will work. The system restore will only restore system settings and not files. But it would also require a restore point that fits in with the time the email was written. That's basing it on a PC. I know Mac's have something slightly different. But I again think that the window of time required is to narrow.

As the OP asked the question 4 months ago, he probably retyped it by now
It is however (IMO) against the spirit of the forums to just PM a solution instead of openly sharing it Steve |

Hi Steve, Oops, you are quite right. I didn't notice the date either. At least one of us on the forum is bright eyed and bushy tailed. Just PM'd you :-) Gary |
