Please help with OE Repair!

Your e-mail was only in RAM and got lost.

It's best if working on a lengthy e-mail to manually save it as a draft
periodically.

Jumping in here because I don't know how else to get started....I
completed a
lengthy email and was about to attach some photos. PC hung up with the
photo
retrieval and I tried shift/alt/delete to close my pictures. Of course
it
shut down everything and now I can't find my draft email because I did
not
have an opportunity to save it! I tried a document search but Outlook
express
is not a valid folder. Any ideas or is it truly lost and I have to
recreate
it (ugh!!) Thanks.

Four months of emails disappeared from my Outlook Express account,
while
thousands of others remained intact. I have downloaded several
demos which
seem to indicate that the emails are still somewhere on my
computer, but I
was something someone could suggest a free program that would
repair my
Outlook Express and restore my thousands of lost emails. Is there a
better
way? The last respondent merely referred me to a link of FAQs for
common
problems, but from those to whom I've spoken, this doesn't seem to
be a
common problem. I need a solution to repair my Outlook Express
program.
Ideas? Anything offered would be greatly appreciated!

Or use File | Save As to save it outside of OE.
