Shit. I use Outlook, IMAP linked through a gmail account at work. This morning I went to expand my Gmail folder (see attachement), and instead of expanding it, accidentally dragged it into my Junk Mail folder. (screen shot attached) 45 minutes later, my Outlook finally stopped running the process. I tried Ctrl Z to undo, but that didn't work. When putting my Gmail folder back to it's place, I've lost all my sub folders, specifically Sent and Spam. The spam is not that important, although I'd like it, but I absolutely need to access my Sent items.
I went to my Outlook Account Settings and in the Advanced area re-created the Sent folder, but it now only contains messages sent today and no past messages. I've been googling around most of the morning trying to fix this without success, so now I'm appealing to you fine folks. My gmail web account does still have the Sent Folder, and now I also have another Sent folder with items sent today. (screen shot attached)
If anyone has any ideas for me on how I can get Outlook to read and pull the data from the original Sent folder in Gmail, I will be forever in your debt.
If I can answer any questions or explain something better, let me know. Thanks in advance.
