Netscape 4 - Recovering Lost Folders

Situation: there is a folder with lots of content visible in Explorer in the Mail area, but it does’t show in Netscape’s view of folders.

Solution: Create a folder to hold the “lost contents” with a unique name.

Look in the lost folder in Explorer for files like title1 and title1.snm

In netscape, create a “new folder” in the unique folder with the exact same name. Using explorer copy title1 and title1.snm up to the unique folder and paste, overwriting the existing blank/zero ones just created.

If there are subfolders within the lost folder copy them up first.
