Restoring deleted outlook files?

So I installed this program ACT on my bosses laptop, it is supposed to work with outlook, but she only has outlook express;

When I installed it it deleted all the old emails that she had; How can I get them back?

Will a system restore do it?

ekkksss, usually if the contents of the deleted items folder is deleted, there are goneā€¦unless there is another undelete program installed when the files would be archived.

depending on the way the mail system is setup you might have better luck getting back-ups from the server

they were in the inbox, not deleted

I installed a program and they were gone

Do I call the server place for the back ups

^yeah, they may have these on tape if a recent backup was done.

Ugh is it 5 yet

is the email account setup as imap or pop?

where all the messages in there overnight? usually the servers are backed up everynight

pop, this happened like 2 days ago

if its pop, do a search on her machine for the files.

they might still exist somewhere

has she been able to receive new mail from the past 2 days after those other ones got deleted?

yes well I had to redo the outlook settings
