Outlook Express Problem

My electricity went off today and when it came back on and I rebooted, my Inbox was empty. My Deleted Items and other folders were unaffected, but I had lost everythingin my Inbox. How can I get these messages back?

Ah. Thats not too good. With POP the messages are downloaded locally instead of left on the server, so if your local message store got deleted then its most likely gon forever
