Help! copied over Microsoft User Data folder

T

Tony Writer

I just inadvertently copied over my current Microsoft User Data folder with
my backed up (older) folder. Entourage is still running so all my messages
are preserved right now. What will happen if I close Entourage? Will the
M.U.D folder update? Or do I lose all newer content?

Thanks!

Did the copy over replace the "current" folder? If it replaced then you lost
that data.

The messages are added to the database as they come in.

If you did not replace the "current" identify. You can drag all new messages
to the desktop then switch identities and drag in the messages.

Use a CustomView to get all new messages.
