Undo mass move of messages from folder
 
I run re-filter of messages from a folder that collected messages since ages. Unfortunately a lot of messages were moved to the sent folder.

Is there any way to recover them to the original folder? I don't mind if they remain in the sent as a duplicate but want them in the original folder back.

Any tips? Maybe undo deletion?

Thanks.
 
There is no Undo as far as I am aware.

Do you have a recent backup of that folder that you could restore?

The Sent folder usually contains only messages that were sent out by yourself. So, if you sort the messages there by sender, then it may be easy to sel ect the other messages (those originally fr om your other folder) and move them back?

Thanks for the answer Daniel!
Yes I have a backup. If I just simply overwrite this one folder, will that work?
Thanks.
 
Yes, I think that will work just fine (as a precaution, you could make a backup of its present state as well).
