Hi there,
Am new here so please excuse any dumb
Am feeling a cold chill up my spine, I really hope someone can help?!
I was renaming my mailbox folders in 'Mail'.
I successfully renamed about ten of them without any problems.
Then I tried to rename one mailbox called 'Uni' into 'uni' (lower case).
I then got a warning dialog telling me that ''The mailbox folder 'Uni' has not been renamed properly''. I clicked 'OK'.
I saw that there were now 2 mailbox folders, one named 'Uni' (upper case) which had been greyed out 'phantom-like', and one named 'uni' (lower case) which was still in the normal blue.
When I clicked on the phantom 'Uni' mailbox I saw that it was completely empty. So I deleted it, thinking that since it was empty, this was not an issue.
However, I was then mortified to see that that in the 'uni' folder (lower case) all of its subfolders, (there used to be 3 of them) which had contained hundreds of very important emails, did not exist any more!
When I tried to back up and 'undo' the rename, there was no undo option.
Does anyone out there know what I can do to get my subfolder emails back? I have searched for them on my entire system but they are nowhere to be seen (((
Any help would be a most appreciated
Yours (in a cold sweat!)
Adrian
