    Missing email from folder


    I lost all my emails from a folder in hotmail. Inbox and all other folders are fine, just one one folder is empty. I did not delete the contents of the folders. Have no idea where all the emails disappeared, those were important emails. Anyone has any idea what could have happened?

    :)

    Missing emails in some folders e.g junk / spam

    Hi folks
    for those using IMAP with Outlook you might be missing some emails - particularly as there's some sort of "duplicity" between SPAM and JUNK folders -- you might only see a SPAM folder when it should be JUNK or the other way around (depending on ISP)

    To get access and see all the folders and emails in them just right mouse click against any folder in the account's mailbox list e.g say the inbox and then uncheck the box as shown.

    Hey presto --your emails should appear.
