Hoe vind je verloren of verwijderde email terug

Inleiding

Email kan kwijtraken door diverse oorzaken: schadelijke attachements, bericht corruptie of een corruptie in het database bestand van Outlook (-Express). Hoe los je problemen op?

Stappen

If you do lose your messages, try the following: a. Search for *.db* (note that in Windows 2000 and XP the dbx files are hidden, so you first need to go Tools | Folder Options in WinExplorer and enable showing hidden files and folders. Then when searching, choose the Advanced Search and enable searching for hidden files. If you find any .dbx or .dbt files, then you can try using the method in the last paragraph on this page (www.oehelp.com/backup.aspx) to attempt to reincorporate the files into the message store (rename thet dbt files to dbx first).

b. You can try using my DBXtract or DBXpress (faster, more accurate and versatile) program to attempt to recover the lost messages. DBXpress also has the capability of reading directly from the disk and bypassing the file system.

c. If you have upgraded your version of IE and OE or your OS version, and all your messages are lost, then see this article (note that the technique in the article does not only apply to the issue addressed in the article title): OLEXP: Mail Folders, Address Book, and E-mail Messages Are Missing After You Upgrade to Microsoft Windows XP http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;313055

d. If File | Import | Messages does not work, ignore the error message, which is erroneous in itself, and try one of the following techniques to get your messages back: 1) Right click on each dbx file or a selection of them and go to Properties and clear the read only attribute of the files. Then try File | Import | Messages again. b. Import the dbx files individually. See the last paragraph on this page for how to do that: http://www.oehelp.com/backup.aspx or get my new OEX program, which you can use to import messages from individual dbx files, if they are not corrupt.
