Open Outlook and point it to the .ost file if it does not automatically
open. If you are offline from Exchange, it should be your only mail store.

After furious head scratching, Brookline Bill asked:

| Hate to sound like a dummy, but how does one open the ost file?
|
|| Do you have a file with an extension of .ost? If yes, you need to
|| open the ..ost and export it to a .pst and then open that.

||| the Exchange server. Went to do Detect and Repair and cannot find
||| old emails. Checked all existing pst files to no avail. Have they
||| been backed up anywhere automatically? Can I retrieve them and
||| convert them to my new inbox?
