[nfbcs] undoing -- me or this program...grrrr

[Wunder, Gary]

I think that if there is a solution to your problem, it is probably
found in any backups that you do of your Outlook express system. If you
use something like Outlook Express Archive, you can probably go back to
your last restore point. Otherwise, you might use that same find
command, select all of those messages, move it to a temporary folder,
and then spend a little time each day going through it and putting the
messages back where they belong.

Subject: [nfbcs] undoing -- me or this program...grrrr

hi all --
I'm on my XP laptop in OE.  I got a little too careless and accidently
moved several thousand messages from one folder to another -- using the
find command followed by selecting and moving (control+shift+v) I hoped
upon hope that OE would provide an undo command -- like 
control+shift+z, to undo the previous move, but it doesn't work.
So I painstakingly tried separating  out the mail I moved and put them
back in my inbox.
(I know, my email activity probably goes beyond what OE is intended for,
but it is convenient and works for me -- most the time.

So as the subject implies, it's me or OE -- does anyone know of an easy
way of recapturing messages accidently stuck in the wrong place?
(This requires more than copying time intervals, as the messages are
interspersed with other messages.)

TIA
