If your PC told the spamcop POP3 server that the mail was retrieved, and you
don't have Outlook Express set to leave a copy of the message on the server,
I think it's gone. If OE is set to leave a copy on the server, you may be
able to grab it from another PC as still new. Unless there's a backup and
the email was sitting there from the previous day and got backed up
overnight. My guess would be you're SOL.
