    its just email from your work. no need to keep order confirmations for orders that you already received right? or emails about meetings and appointments? bah! no need! at least you didnt delete emails from your home account. i dunno, i guess i dont see anything to stress about

    That really fits the category! I would go absolutely Ape-**** if that happened to me (i store about 500 e-mails on my main account alone). Everything from a address book I have uploaded as an attachment so I can grab it from whatever computer I want to old love notes from my ex...

    There is something to like about AOL? I thought it was all just a big pile of steaming...nevermind. Hotmail has that delayed delete function too...and Hotmail is free.

    Nope, no love for me...

    was checking personal email and lost all of that... wouldn't have minded losing work email.

    I check personal email at work all week long, and then download it off the server when I'm home on the weekend. So I'd forgotten to do it for the last two weekends, and there were about 800+ messages on the server. I decided to weed out everything but the important stuff, but accidentally hit select all instead of deselect and it all went buh-bye....

    I'm going to go wallow in sorrow by spending way too much money at the Comic-Con...

    You live in SD? Come on over to my place and I'll help you drown your troubles in vodka Not that you don't have enough at your place, but I'm really bored and wish that I was back in LA (visiting my 'rents for the weekend).

    Haven't any of you people ever heard of backing up your data?

    I backup my data. I just hadn't downloaded the email off the server to my home computer, which I do the backups from.

    This weekend I was introduced to the pleasures of vodka and red bull. Wide awake drunkdom is an odd thing...
