Lost Email

Wed May 06, 2009 1:51 pm

Hello,

Just downloaded, installed and setup MailWasher, wn\ent throught the mail, blacklisted, add to friends, etc., clicked Process Mail - have no idea where the messages went. Yes I set it up to use Eudora, the only program I have for email, opened Eudora clicked New Messages, nothing there. Any idea where the messages went?

TIA,

So you manually had Eudora poll for new msgs? I'm not familiar with Eudora but be sure that there are no filters that could place received msgs elsewhere.

Hi Ikeb,

Checked the Trash in Eudora - where filtered messages would go, nothing there except for what I put there. Any other ideas?

Dunno about Eudora but with many clients, filters can, for instance, move msgs in any folder.

Hi Ikeb,

As mentioned, have checked the Trash, then I went through the mailboxes, couldn't find anything. Before I reformatted this computer, MW worked great, I really depended on it, now I lost those messages. If you or anyone else has any other suggestions, please let me know?

TIA,

Do make sure that MWP isn't involved somehow. Check your msg logs to verify that msgs were not deleted (by MWP). Beyond that, I can't think of anything else to try.
