First time user to Tech guys. Fumbling in the dark here but give it a go. Trying to get used to Vista !!! When typing email to Australia message disappeared computer said 'time elapsed'. Found email message in C drive but could not open it or reclaim it. Sent letter to Aus handwritten.

What type of email do you have? Webmail (like Yahoo!)? Email client
(like Windows Live Mail or Windows Mail)? AOL? Other?

When typing email to Australia message disappeared computer said 'time elapsed'.

I wouldn't know what this means? It wouldn't matter where you were
sending your email AU or the neighbor next door. But what do you
mean the message disappeared? How did it disappear? Did you
click something?

Found email message in C drive

How did you find it? What is the full path where you found it?
